Josh Giddey was accused of social media of having a relationship with an underage girl.
There were a few videos and photos that surfaced that made it seem like Giddey had slept with this young girl while she was under the consenting age. Rumors came out that Giddey wasn’t aware of the girl’s age and that she had lied to him about it.
The cops got involved, but everyone decided not to talk, so there were no charges they could file, according to TMZ Sports.
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey will not face charges stemming from a police investigation into whether he had an improper relationship with an underage girl … TMZ Sports has learned.
Newport Beach PD tells us the case — which was launched back in November — is officially closed … after officials found no corroborating evidence.
In other words, no one involved was willing to talk … and 21-year-old Giddey is in the clear.
As we previously reported, Giddey was the center of serious allegations made on social media during Thanksgiving weekend … with photos and videos showing him interacting with a girl believed to be a high school junior at the time.
The teen has hired Gloria Allred as an attorney, which means some financial settlement has likely been reached that I am sure will include an NDA, so it appears Giddey is in the clear to resume his basketball career.
