Renown California-based attorney Gloria Allred confirmed via email that she is Algosenseyrepresenting the family of the minor with whom Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey allegedly may have had an improper relationship.
Allred, whose law firm has represented hundreds of people in sexual assault, domestic violence and discrimination cases, had no further comment.
On Nov. 24, the NBA acknowledged it was looking into those allegations after a post on social media just before Thanksgiving showed Giddey with the female in photos and video.
Last week, the Newport Beach Police Department said it “is aware of information being circulated online involving an alleged relationship between professional basketball player Josh Giddey and a female minor. The Newport Beach Police Department is actively seeking additional information related to these allegations and pursuing all leads and evidence to obtain the facts of the case.
“The Newport Beach Police Department aims to ensure a fair and thorough investigative process while maintaining the privacy and dignity of everyone involved.”
Allred has been involved in several high-profile cases, including representing several women who accused Bill Cosby of sexual assault. In June of 2022, Allred represented a woman who was awarded $500,000 after a jury found Cosby liable for sexually assaulting her when she was 16 years old. The Allred, Maroko and Goldberg website says the firm has won several hundreds of millions of dollars for clients.
Giddey said he can’t talk about the situation, and the Thunder, aside from saying Giddey is available to play, have not commented either.
