Fans Chants at Vert’s Concert
Fans reportedly chanted “F*ck Josh Giddey” at Lil Uzi Vert’s Boston concert recently. The video of the incident has gone viral. Fans’ rage and disappointment have risen to the point where they are willing to take over a concert to vent their rage. With each passing year, the OKC Thunder Guard faces increasingly severe backlash.
Josh Giddey has jeopardized his NBA career. If the allegations are true, he could be kicked out of the league. Fans have also drawn parallels between Giddey and Karl Malone, who was accused of having an affair with a 13-year-old girl.
Giddey’s recent appearance has only exacerbated the situation, as his vague four-word response has enraged the fans. Notably, after his game, the NBA star was interviewed about the recent allegations and controversy.
“I understand the question obviously,” he replied, “but there’s no further comment right now.” Furthermore, the team’s coach, Mark Daigneault, has refused to make any significant statements. He responded that it is a personal matter and that he has no comments.
According to a earlier report, the NBA is actively investigating the allegations levelled against the 21-year-old player. Furthermore, a video of a young girl admitting to dating Giddey has surfaced, adding fuel to the fire.
Furthermore, Giddey, who made his NBA debut in 2021 and signed his rookie contract with the OKC Thunder, was expected to have a successful career.
He was named NBA Rookie of the Month four times and received one All-Rookie Team award. Fans will now have to wait for an official statement from the NBA to learn what the future holds for Giddey.
