The Oklahoma City Thunder traded Josh Giddey to the Chicago Bulls this summer but the guard is finding his footing with his home country.
The Oklahoma City Thunder traded Josh Giddey to open up their offseason, swapping him out for defensive ace Alex Caruso in a deal with the Chicago Bulls. This wasn't so much the Thunder waiving the white flag on Giddey as a player - despite his year three struggles - but a move to get each party a more favorable fit.
The 21-year-old is poised to have the best year of his career, operating more with the ball in his hands under the leadership of Billy Donovan who has a track record that warrants him being labeled a guard whisperer. Giddey has even improved in catch-and-shoot looks cashing in such chances as a 58 percent clip. The former NBL star will help lead his home country in what is labeled the group of death against a familiar foe.
