Not an OKC fan or trying to make excuses for Giddey, but is it possible Giddey met her at a party or something and it was a one night stand or just a few day-long stint?
I mean, it was in Cali, and I’m not aware that he spends extended periods there, although it’s very possible since it’s practically a second (or first) home for celebrities like him. So my thinking is (this is just a theory I have no idea what the hell im talking about) he could have been in California for a week and met her there and hit it off, then after a few days he flew back home. It’s not uncommon for teenage girls to lie about their age to get with men much older than them, and if you think you have a chance with a celebrity that’s even more motivation.
Or maybe it goes much deeper than that (which it probably does), but it’s just so bizarre that he’s recording videos and posting pictures with this girl if he knew she was 15, 16, or however old she is. I mean how can he possibly be that stupid, when just less than a year ago Ja gets two suspensions for showing a gun for a second on an IG live? No doubt this situation is much more serious either; I just can’t believe anyone could be that stupid.
There’s very limited information on this situation and so it’s hard to know what’s true and what’s not and the context of it all. Either way though it is definitely not a good look. But something in me just doesn’t buy that a young up-and-coming NBA player would make such a huge mistake when the same thing on a smaller scale happened last season. It just doesn’t add up to me. But crazier shit has happened.
yes, hes either generationally stupid or he probably didnt know. The amount of showboating he was doing and evidence... he most likely didnt know. On top of that, the girl was bragging and seemingly wasnt coerced explicitly. Yes people can be young and niave (including Giddey) but i guarantee the relentless press and online mob is going to do 10x worst damage to that poor girls mental health than any cancellation that might occur. Motherfuckers are bored at home making absolute accusations on minimal information is fucking disgusting. TO BE ABSOLUTELY CLEAR, i am not condoning a person in the position of kidding manipulating somebody who is naive and if he concretely did the wrong thing, throw the book at him... but the mob can be injustively irresponsible.
