The NBA is looking into allegations that Oklahoma City Thunder wing Josh Giddey engaged in an inappropriate relationship with an underage girl, a league spokesman said Friday, according to ESPN's Tim MacMahon.
The allegations regarding the 21-year-old surfaced on social media earlier this week.
Giddey and Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault declined to comment on the reports Friday after practice.
"I get the question, guys, and I completely understand you guys want to know about it, but just for right now, I don't have anything to say," said Giddey, according to Rylan Stiles of FanSided.
The Australian is in his third NBA season.
Oklahoma City plays the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday.
