Josh Giddey will continue to play for the Oklahoma City Thunder while the NBA investigates viral social media allegations that he had a relationship with an underage girl.
He was certainly on the floor for Saturday’s 127-123 loss to the Sixers. He recorded 10 points, eight assists and seven rebounds.
In the meantime, the young high school girl he is allegedly in a relationship with or had sexual intercourse with is now speaking out in a huge way.
Social media users noticed that the young girl liked a post on Instagram regarding Giddey’s investigation.
It should be noted that while that name has been floating around as the young girl, nothing has been confirmed. Also, anybody can create a fake profile these days.
The online allegations arose on social media last Wednesday night. Giddey elected to not give any comments about the situation following Friday’s practice. A few hours later, the league announced its investigation.
