The
National
Basketball
Association
has
revealed
it’s
investigating
an
alleged
relationship
between
Josh
Giddey
and
an
underage
girl.
On
Wednesday,
November
22,
a
questionable
video
emerged
online
featuring
Oklahoma
City
Thunder
player
Josh
Giddey.
In
the
video,
he
was
seen
snuggling
up
with
a
girl
who
appeared
to
be
a
minor.
As
the
video
spread
on
social
media,
the
allegations
began
to
pick
up
steam
after
internet
detectives
found
the
girl’s
Snapchat.
One
social
media
account
claimed
the
girl
pictured
is
only
15.
According
to
ESPN,
a
now-deleted
X
account
claimed
she
was
a
high
school
sophomore
at
the
time.
On
her
Snapchat,
she
seemingly
confirmed
their
relationship
with
a
video
captioned,
“Just
f**ked
Josh
Giddey.”

Additionally,
the
video
spread
to
every
corner
of
the
internet,
and
as
soon
as
Thanksgiving
ended,
the
NBA
confirmed
it
is
investigating
the
situation,
according
to
a
tweet
from
NBA
Insider
Shams
Charania.
“The
NBA
is
looking
into
the
allegations
of
Oklahoma
City’s
Josh
Giddey
having
inappropriate
relationship
with
a
minor
that
have
emerged
via
social
media,
league
spokesman
Mike
Bass
said.”
Surprisingly,
Giddey
attended
OKC’s
Media
Availability
after
the
videos
and
allegations
surfaced
but
declined
to
comment.
OKC’s
head
coach,
Mark
Daigneault,
also
dodged
the
matter
with
poor
excuses.
“I
understand
the
question
obviously,
but
there’s
no
further
comment
right
now,”
Giddey
told
reporters.
“I
get
the
question
guys,
I
completely
understand
you
guys
want
to
know
about
it
but
just
for
right
now,
I
don’t
have
anything
to
say,”
Daigneault
added,
“Personal
matter
and
I
have
no
comment
on
it.
And
that’ll
be
my
answer
on
anything
related.”
Maybe
PR
training
would
be
a
good
idea
for
the
Thunder
organization,
as
the
handling
thus
far
has
been
a
disaster.
Giddey
remaining
around
the
team
isn’t
a
good
look,
and
not
denying
the
allegations
is
definitely
odd.
Could
you
imagine
if
these
allegations
emerged
during
David
Stern’s
time
as
commissioner?
