What’s the whole story behind this?

Giddey thought of the term "young core" and took it literally.

If this happens to be true, and this accusation is valid and it was a 15-16 year old with a 20-21 year old, I think he should be waived by the Thunder. There is no place for this type of behavior in the NBA.

imagine justifying the age gap. hes an nba player talking to a high schooler, that says it all lol

Chet deleted an old tweet that said he and Giddey were twins lmaoooo

Wait what did I miss?

Edit: Oh my.

Jesus wth

What happened?!

This is nowhere near as wild as Dwight Howard

If it was 19vs17 then its weird seeing the uproar as an european

That one photo of him being shirtless is pretty damning added with the context of that video where he referred to her as "his girl" is damning as fuck.

Considering that he's a pro who was on the way to getting Generational wealth it's hard to say if her parents minded the relationship or not as long as they were in a relationship quietly for 5 years at least before going public

Age of consent will determine if what he's faced with statutory rape or not.

Hard to say if it will affect his actual NBA career. If he is found to not have committed a crime aka statutory rape then it'll likely end up being a very embarrassing thing he did. He'll face endless child predators taunts for the rest of his career.

Obviously if he committed statutory rape he's out.

Quite honestly I don't get why he went for a girl so young.

He's a rich fit white boy with an Aussie accent. He can literally go to any frat party at OU or OSU and bang any girl there.

It’s not looking good for brodie

It's honestly fucking insane how twitter is making a mockery out of this very serious situation. Both the allegations and the reactions to the allegations make me sick to my stomach.

Interesting to see how many "let's wait and see" or justifying how it won't probably isn't that big of a deal Giddey gets yet the KPJ is immediately the scum of the universe.

I shouldn't have to say this but if the initial report of the KPJ incident is accurate he of course is the scum of the universe but the point is people seem to want Giddey to be "innocent" while the want KPJ to be guilty. Wonder why that is?

in season tournament got whole league acting up

What's the deal here? He was 19 and she was 15? Bit gross, but aren't people getting married at 15 in the U.S? Wasn't there a popular show "16 and pregnant" that ran for years?

Kobe straight up raped someone and so did Malone. Just for perspective.

ayyy you know they got your mans

they got your mans on sex assault charges

Waiting for Woj to tweet “Thunder guard Josh Giddey will be away from the team”

What I missed, this is the first thread I saw

Get fucked homeboy lmao

As a non-NBA fan that stumbled here from r/all, can anyone give me the ELI5 of what’s going on here? Seems like some NBA star (allegedly?) slept with a HS girl?

Btw just so you guys some Aussie lore here. Josh went to an all boys high school called St Kevin’s, probably the most controversial in Australia and particularly Melbourne. It is infamous for NUMEROUS sexual misconduct cases in which teachers forced themselves on students and it was covered up unsuccessfully by the school. The students of St Kevin’s are also known to be an unruly, hyper masculine bunch that have shouted sexiest chants in buses such as : “I wish that all the ladies; Were holes in the road; And if I was a dump truck; I’d fill them with my load.”
