I was watching the timberwolves game and hearing giddey get boo’d on almost every single possession where he touched the ball made me think a bit. I would feel so horrible if he was innocent and he gets treated as a pedophile for the rest of his career.

Also, I realized that if the girl did indeed trick him into believing she was above 18, she will receive absolutely no legal consequence whatsoever despite potentially threatening a young man’s career, earnings, and reputation.

    The “She told me she was 18!” Defense has a 0.000948 % success rate

    I think we all know that already.

    I’m surprised it’s being clutched onto as often as it is in the various comments.

      I’m surprised too, even though I shouldn’t be. This sub has infantilized Giddey since he got to OKC. No one else gets the “he’s only __ years old!” treatment. Now, he’s being made a victim.

      The responsibility was on him to vet anyone he sleeps with. Checking gov’t-issued ID and Googling her first and last name to verify her age is the bare minimum.

      Redditors trying to justify him sleeping with 15/16yos are insane. I don’t care if that’s the AoC in whatever state he’s trying to have sex in, for optics reasons, he needs to stick to women over 18. If the league/team isn’t drilling that into their players’ heads, what are they doing?
