Josh Giddey Accused Of Having Sexual Relationship With A Minor

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey has been accused of having a sexual relationship with a minor. The allegations first emerged on social media, with users appearing to post evidence of Giddey interacting with a reportedly then-17-year-old Olivia Cook. One of the widely-cited pieces of alleged evidence was a Snapchat post showing Giddey and Cook in a post-coital state of undress with the in-picture text caption “Just f-cked Josh Giddey”. Furthermore, social media users later uncovered more posts that appeared to corroborate the story, as well as Cooks’ TikTok account, which appeared to confirm that she was not 18.

However, the allegations are largely unverified and stem primarily from second-hand reporting of social media posts. Neither Giddey nor Cook have released a statement at this time. Giddey, a first-round pick in 2021 and widely considered the future of Australian basketball, played against the Bulls in a game on Wednesday night. He had 10 points and 6 rebounds in the Thunder win. This is a developing story and we will have any updates as and when they emerge.

Who Is Josh Giddey?

Josh Giddey
PORTLAND, OREGON – NOVEMBER 19: Josh Giddey #3 of the Oklahoma City Thunder warms up before a game against the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center on November 19, 2023 in Portland, Oregon.

Born in 2002, Giddey joined the NBA in 2021. He forwent the US college system, instead playing a season of professional basketball in his native Australia before declaring for the draft. He had a strong rookie season, putting up 12.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 6.4 assists as part of the Thunder’s young core. His sophomore season only saw Giddey improve. In the 2022-23 season, Giddey put up 16.6 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 6.2 assists as the Thunder made the playoffs for the first time since the COVID Bubble.

Meanwhile, Giddey’s star was also rising on the international scene. After playing at the junior level, Giddey made his debut for Australia’s senior national team in 2020. However, he fell just short of making the roster for the 2020 Olympics, where Australia would win a bronze medal. Despite this, Giddey would make the roster for the 2023 FIBA World Cup, putting up 19.4 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists a game. Australia would finish 10th but still secured an Olympic berth.

SSSniperwolf Allegedly Asked A Minor To Expose Themself In 2016 Video

In a 2016 video, YouTuber SSSniperwolf can be seen asking a self-proclaimed minor to expose themself on camera. The video, entitled “GIRL ON OMEGLE”, sees SSSniperwolf interacting with users on the video roulette site Omegle. In one instance, a girl in a Hooters t-shirt exposes herself to the camera. However, the accompanying message exchange shows that the girl identifies herself as being 16 years old. Furthermore, the message log also shows SSSniperwolf explicitly asking the girl to show her private parts. The Youtuber writes “u 1st” after the girl asks “wanna show each other b**bs?”

The video, which remains live on YouTube, was rediscovered by social media users amid the heightened backlash against SSSniperwolf. That backlash stems from SSSniperwolf doxxing another creator, Jacksfilms, in a severe escalation of their online feud. SSSniperwolf took a photo of Jack’s home over the weekend, posting it to her 5.4 million Instagram followers. Numerous people have called for SSSniperwolf, who has over 34 million subscribers on YouTube, to be removed from the platform.

YouTube Remains Silent On SSSniperwolf Controversy

Despite the growing calls for action to be taken against SSSniperwolf, YouTube has made no official statement nor taken any official action against her. However, it’s unlikely that the platform will do so. Taking action would require YouTube to turn on one of their most prized creators. SSSniperwolf is a veteran presence on the site and boasts over 34 million followers. She is a constantly referenced and promoted on the company’s social media and has appeared as a keynote speaker at several conventions and YouTube events. Furthermore, entering into the situation on one side or the other would require YouTube to take a stand on the sort of content that SSSniperwolf makes her money from. In short, there is no benefit to YouTube to get involved.

However, some of the posts YouTube has made on social media have been taken in incredibly bad taste. Their most recent tweet, “would it be too meta to do a reaction video to a reaction video”, is almost an on-the-nose reference to the sort of content that led to her doxxing Jacksfilms. This and other recent posts have seen their comments flooded by people relating the message to the controversy or simply calling for SSSniperwolf’s removal from the platform.
