Could the Oklahoma City Thunder Move Josh Giddey After the Recent Controversy?
Yes, the Oklahoma City Thunder could make a move. The general manager of OKC Thunder, Sam Presti, has said before that they have enough assets to trade for a star player. In the deal, Presti could include Josh Giddey, as this seems to be the right time to move the alleged star.
Giddey is currently on a rookie contract with the Oklahoma City Thunder, and it would not be a big deal for the franchise to move him alongside some young players for a star player in exchange. In fact, they are looking to trade for a star.
As of now, the investigation is under processing, and Josh Giddey is innocent until proven guilty. Some social media pages even share false and misleading information on Giddey’s case.
