Photo and video footage of Giddey and a girl were posted online, alleging that the woman in question was underage at the time when Giddey was over 18. The player is seen calling her 'his girl', while one of the photos from her Snapchat profile has a caption of the two having sexual relations together.

It sparked a huge controversy online, with people doing their own digging and searching for additional information. The woman's age or identity hasn't been confirmed.

The Thunder held a practice on Friday, and Giddey was asked about it.

"I understand the question, obviously, but there's no further comment right now," Giddey said.

Head coach Mark Daigneault shared the same reaction.

"Personal matter, and I have no comment on it. That will be my answer on anything related," he said.

The Thunder haven't released any statements regarding the matter. Meanwhile, the NBA has launched an investigation into Giddey's actions.
