Josh Giddey has been an early season revelation for the Oklahoma City Thunder. The rookie from Australia has started off strong, despite the perfectly normal expectation that his game may take a while to translate.
Apparently, his game has translated quicker than expected in other ways as well. The Thunder star was seen charming some fans after their latest game against the Golden State Warriors.

Safe to say, Josh Giddey is getting some decent numbers, both on and off the court.
The Thunder wing has been highly productive through six games thus far, filling up the stat sheet with averages of 10.7 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 5.7 assists.
Those numbers may be on an underperforming OKC squad, but it's telling that he's already playing over last season's rookie duo of Theo Maledon and Aleksej Pokusevski, immediately grabbing the starting spot in his first game.




His playmaking has translated early and often, with a growing list of dimes dropped sure to be featured in his season-long highlight reel. It's no surprise the Thunder rookie is gaining popularity among fans, female and not.

The Oklahoma City Thunder may not be racking up wins just yet, but with guys like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Josh Giddey, and a boatload of first-round picks in the next half-decade, the future is looking bright.
