Josh Giddey
The inquiry into whether Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey had an inappropriate relationship with a minor has hit a roadblock.
TMZ Sports has learned the alleged teen and her family are refusing to cooperate with officials.
Law enforcement sources tell us police would obviously like to speak with the purported female and those close to her to gather more information regarding the social media claims that made rounds over the weekend ... but as of right now, no one is talking.
As of this post, nothing has been confirmed.
Do not post names, pictures, or any other identifiable information just as location or schools of the alleged victims.
Any user that breaks this rule will be banned.
TL;DR:
Josh Giddey won't face charges after a police investigation into alleged improper relations with an underage girl. The case is closed due to lack of corroborating evidence, as the individuals involved declined to cooperate. Giddey, 21, remained with the Thunder during the probe, and the NBA deferred to law enforcement in handling the matter.
Josh Giddey, asked how he can shift his focus to basketball again now that the Newport Beach PD investigation is closed: “I get that you have to ask that, but I have no comment regarding that situation.”
Asked if he could describe the past couple months, he had the same answer

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey is reportedly at risk of losing his $40 million sponsorship deal with Weet-Bix, an Australian cereal brand by the Sanitarium Health Food Company, amid the NBA investigation into allegations of Giddey having an inappropriate relationship with an underage girl.
The 21-year-old Aussie has been removed from the company’s social media accounts, according to Code Sports.
A spokesperson for Sanitarium said the company is aware of the situation, but said it had yet to cut ties with Giddey.
“We are obviously aware of news surrounding Josh Giddey and are waiting for facts to be confirmed,” the spokesperson told Code Sports.
“We are in contact with Josh’s management team and waiting on further detail at this point.”
Giddey previously appeared on Weet-Bix cereal boxes and other promotional materials marketing the brand.
Josh Giddey has attempted 238 shots and has 236 points through a quarter of the season.
He is currently ranked dead last in the NBA in TS%.
He has taken more shots than anybody on the Thunder not named SGA.
His on/off on the season is currently a -19.3.
Before the last two games (where DAL and HOU put their center on Giddey), the starting lineup had a +7.0 net rating. After the DAL and HOU games (only 19 additional minutes played together), the starter's net rating is down to +3.1.
Here’s two minutes of the Rockets completely ignoring him.
He is the single worst defender on his team.
DESPITE all this, he is ranked second on his team in usage and touches. He averages 26 minutes per game. And what might be the most damning, his style of play forces him to take possessions away from SGA who is performing like a top 5-10 player this season.
Somehow, OKC is 13-7.
Edit; more stats
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but when the starting 5 is on the court, Josh Giddey is averaging the most FGA…
Shai’s averaging 23 per 75 on 60 TS% with Giddey on the floor
Shai’s averaging 40 per 75 on 66 TS% with Giddey off
