The controversy surrounding Josh Giddey of the Oklahoma City Thunder continues to grow.
A user on X recently alleged that Giddey was in a relationship with a minor believed to be Liv Cook. The account posted a video in which Giddey could be seen with his arms wrapped around her. A separate picture showed the Australian with his arms wrapped around her neck. Although the posts were deleted, screenshots were taken by other users and shared online.
An alleged video of Cook has now surfaced in which she seemingly admits to dating the NBA star.
"Hey guys! I'm dating Josh, we don't have to talk about it," the girl said in the video.

Josh Giddey has been instrumental in OKC Thunder's rise
After the tweet went viral, an account on X posted that the Thunder had released the young guard from their roster. However, the account that posted it was B**tcrack Sports, a parody page that specializes in circulating misinformation.
Giddey hasn't been released from the team, and the organization hasn't addressed the allegations against him.
Giddey has had a good season as the Thunder's primary floor general. OKC has the second-best record in the West right now, and the Australian guard played a major role in leading the team to where they are.
