Internet rumors blew up late Wednesday night surrounding Oklahoma City Thunder star Josh Giddey, to a point where the NBA is now reportedly involved.

The league is said to be looking into allegations that the 21-year-old is in an inappropriate relationship with a minor, according to multiple reports.

Photos surfaced of what appeared to be Giddey hugging a female from behind, and another one with a caption that read “just f—ed josh giddey.”

Rumors swirled online that the girl in question is 15 years old.

Giddey declined comment at practice on Friday.

“I get the question guys. I completely understand you guys want to know about it but just for right now. I don’t have anything to say,” Giddey said.
