The Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey was hitting the headlines for the wrong reasons after being called out on Twitter as leaked footage of him with an underage girl went viral all across Instagram. Sources suggest that the video of Giddey was shared by an anonymous user on the platform with an underage girl whose name is Liv Cook.

In the video, the Oklahoma City guard was seen recording a video for his brother with his hands wrapped around Liv. There was also a picture leaked which happened to be shared on Snapchat where the guard was seen holding Liv with his hands around her neck. Sources suggest that the original pictures were posted by a private Instagram handle with the name “OC Beers” with the bio explicitly stating the agenda to expose Josh Giddey.

In light of the leaked footage on Instagram, Josh Giddey has blocked out his profile picture on his Instagram account, changing it to black. Giddey also happened to block the comment section of his posts on his IG feed as fans and critics tried calling out the guard there. It was also said that fans also learned the name of the alleged minor girl’s social media handle.

The Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey is one of the key players in the team’s roster and if these allegations are confirmed, he will be subject to serious consequences. However, the guard hasn’t released any official statement in regards to the allegations but the latest move suggests he is aware of the accusations but chose not to defend himself.

Josh Giddey’s role and his importance to the OKC

The Oklahoma City Thunder in the ongoing NBA regular season is the most exciting team to see, filled with young talented players on the team’s roster. The OKC is placed in a stunning second position in the Western Conference standings with an exceptional record in the matches played so far. Josh Giddey is said to be leading the OKC and is one of the important and key players on the roster.

Long-time fans of the franchise are witnessing the same energy and team dynamics, reminiscing about the big three of the time including Kevin Durant Russell Westbrook, and James Harden. The OKC has a stellar record of 11-4 so far in the season with fans and critics giving major credit to their offensive side of the game on both ends of the court.

OKC’s star guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shared that Giddey is the reason behind the franchise’s stellar performance this season and said:

"I’m gonna give you the answer right now—it’s Josh Giddey. When you have a passer like that, it’s inevitable ... I’m being dead serious. A lot of it is Josh. He’ll find you if you’re open. So get open." 

Given the role of Josh Giddey in the team, it would be a major downside for the team to lose him in light of his recent allegations of being involved with a 15-year-old minor from junior high school.
