[Wojnarowski] ESPN Sources: Four months after Newport Beach (Calif) police announced a probe had been “unable to corroborate any criminal activity” against Oklahoma City’s Josh Giddey, 21, involving online allegations of an inappropriate relationship with an underage girl, the NBA has closed its own

Beat the allegations off the court, but he unfortunately didn’t beat them on the court.
Regardless of how at fault he is (you know as little as I do), he’s gonna have to wear that title for life now in the eyes of the public, and that would fuck anyone up mentally.
I’m pretty sure the girl didn’t come forward and talk to the police so there’s no criminal charges. She hired Gloria Allred as council so they’re probably settling for cash
Right in time for trade szn
I for one am shocked this girls parents wanted this to go away as quickly as possible
We’ll never know what the truth is in the situation we can only assume based off what we saw. He will always be called a pedo regardless though by the internet.
Pretty sure /r/nbacirclejerk’s is still wide open though
This is phrased in such a way it is clearly from Adam Silver’s direct texts to Woj

Keep seeing “she lied about her age to get into the club” when there’s no evidence of this online other than a video of Josh in the club with a completely different girl.
Unfortunately he will never be seen as innocent in the public’s eyes
This league still parades around Karl Malone at times and gives slaps on the wrist for domestic abuse, this shit means nothing to me
Oh cool so people are gonna stop saying he’s a pedophile now? Or are we still gonna accuse a human being of one of the most serious crimes you can commit while having zero hard evidence?
This is what happens when you get your information from fucking Twitter lol. Too bad it won’t stop the dumbasses in this sub from making terrible “jokes”.
Man’s innocent but people wanna be mad about summin so he done fore
I’m honestly surprised we don’t hear more of this stuff with young guys coming into the league. They are surrounded by new people all the time and I’m sure not every athlete is doing proper vetting and checking the Id’s of every single person they hook up with.
If the age difference was 19/17 I don’t see the issue. Especially she was underage at a club. Could’ve happened to any of us. Feel for Josh here
I always thought this was much ado about nothing. Online mobs and their pitchforks man. Dude is barely an adult himself. I just don’t get acting like he’s some predator for being with someone like 2 years younger than him or whatever it is. It’s silly.
lol. Their age difference was 2 years. Truly not a big deal.
No more Josh Kiddey jokes? 😔
[Well, he still have people on his side](https://www.reddit.com/r/nbacirclejerk/comments/1cy0t04/bet_this_guys_is_here_somewhere/)
Yes, you can trade for him now! Come one, come all!
Josh Giddy has officially beat the allegations and is cleared for a trade to the Detroit Pistons!!!
Maybe this will get people to stop talking about the situation and for people to stop calling him a pedophile.
Lol sike.
I mean he literally just paid her to shut up and never give away details
I follow the innocent until proven guilty rule so Giddey has always been clear in my eyes.
