Earlier this month, Young predicted that he would eventually surpass his teammate Kobe Bryant with his number of total career points.  Young stated: “I think he got some potential. On my 20th year, I’ll probably have 46,000 points or something like that.”  However, Young seems to have more confidence in himself than the public does, and many people viewed his statement as ridiculous.
