He is a good fit on a team with 4 shooters, but so are Giannis, Embiid, Jokic, Morant, etc... So what does one do with Giddey? He is not good enough to hold the ball all game long with 4 shooters. He needs to be able to play off the ball. However, I will say this in his favor: The shooting is slowly rounding into shape, and this is the organization that figured out Lu Dort's jumper. It took Dort 5 years, but he finally jumped from 30-33%, to nearly 40%. Giddey is on a decent path here... FT% Year 1: .709 Year 2: .731 Year 3: .806 3PT% Year 1: .263 Year 2: .325 Year 3: .337
His first year in the NBA, Giddey's game was a lot more mature than most rookies. Problem is, that was an indication he didn't have much upside. I believe he can be a solid 20 mins/game reserve on a good team. I guess OKC has seen enough.
Giddey sucks…mediocre ball handler and playmaker with weak shooting and minimal offensive game he’s a bench player
Thunders going to have to trade young for old - the way Giddey likes it - and send him out for a Derrick Favors type muhuhahaha.
