Quote:
The NBA is looking into allegations made on social media that Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey had an inappropriate relationship with a minor, league spokesman Mike Bass said Friday.

The league initiated the inquiry after posts were made by an anonymous user allegedly connecting Giddey, 21, to an underage female.

Giddey and Thunder coach Mark Daigneault declined to comment when asked at the Thunder’s media availability Friday.

“I understand the question obviously, but there’s no comment right now,” Giddey said.

Newport Beach police have launched an inquiry into NBA player Josh Giddey after allegations surfaced on social media that he had an inappropriate relationship with an underage girl, authorities said Tuesday.

Police provided few details about the ongoing investigation but said it involved a minor and that detectives were looking into whether a crime had occurred, said Sgt. Steve Oberon of the Newport Beach Police Department.

The police inquiry comes after the NBA said Friday the league had begun its own investigation into whether Giddey, 21, who plays for the Oklahoma City Thunder, had a relationship with a minor, CBS Sports reported.
