Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey is currently fighting some very serious accusations.
Giddey is accused of having an intimate relationship with an underage girl. Various videos and images of the guard, with the girl have surfaced on X.
The allegations against Giddey have now led to ESPN’s Malika Andrews receiving some serious backlash from NBA fans.
Fans claim that Andrews, who is said to go after black athletes once they’re thought to be in the wrong, isn’t bringing the same energy when allegations are made against white athletes. Check out some of their reactions:

ESPN and Andrews then broker their silence on the case, however, the result wasn’t much different, as fans again said that it seem forced and without the same energy as in cases against black athletes.

Y’all expecting Malika Andrews to keep it real about Josh Giddey is hilarious considering she’s signed to ESPN, who is signed to Disney.
