Newport Beach police said Wednesday that they have completed their investigation of Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey in connection with allegations he had an inappropriate relationship with an underage girl, and were unable to “corroborate any criminal activity.”
The police department said it had conducted a “thorough and exhaustive examination” of accusations that were “circulating on social media involving Josh Giddey.”
Police said the detectives investigating Giddey “have reviewed all of the available information and were unable to corroborate any criminal activity related to Mr. Giddey. The Newport Beach Police Department is committed to ensuring that accurate information is disseminated to the public, while also ensuring the rights of all those involved.”
Giddey, 21, declined to comment on the situation when questioned about it during a practice at the end of November.
“Yeah, I mean, I understand the question, obviously, but there’s no further comment right now,” he told reporters at the time.
