Allegations or not, we’re talking about a potentially serious crime. Yet, none of the big media outlets are reporting on it. Do we know why? I can’t help but thinking about other NBA player allegations and it being big news on ESPN or Fox Sports etc. what is the difference? Can’t help but imagining if this was a non white player what the media would be doing here. Can anybody give any other reason as to why this may be?

    On an NBA forum Josh giddey is barely a notable name. Now take into account national media, Josh giddey isn’t even close to being on anyone’s radar. He’s a half step above that san Antonio primo guy in terms of notoriety, and if I wasn’t a subscriber to this sub I wouldn’t have known about the alleged primo thing either?

    If national media is going to pick up and run with an almost baseless claim against someone, im sure they can do much better than a relatively obscure NBA player that plays for the thunder.

      That’s kinda not accurate. Kid won rookie of the month nearly every month, minus the last due to injuries. He was the 6th pick in his draft and is playing on a first place team. To say he’s not notable is not accurate. Is he a star, meh, but he’s a known player here and in Australia.
