The Oklahoma City Thunder saw Josh Giddey flip games in their first-round series sweep over the New Orleans Pelicans, which stems from the work Giddey has put in.
This season has been nothing short of rocky for Josh Giddey . For the third straight season, the 21-year-old saw his role change, expectations get altered, criticism creep up and pressure mount.
Giddey was a minus 23 that day logging just 11 points, three assists, three rebounds and a steal while being left on an island to drown offensively. Since March 1 the 6-foot-8 guard is averaging 15 points, seven rebounds and six assists per game. Giddey has made a larger impact on the defensive end as well while shooting 54 percent from the floor, 37 percent from beyond the arc, 69 percent at the rim and 77 percent from the charity stripe.
The vibes were high following Game 4 as the OKC Thunder pulled off just their second sweep in franchise history and Mark Daigneault went around the locker room calling each member of the roster a bad Mother---, but things were especially good for Giddey.
