In an interview with Emily Austin, Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey spoke about his TikTok fame and which players around the league he watches the most on the social media platform.
Giddey has developed a bit of a following due to his TikTok fame as he is one of the more active users on the platform that plays in the NBA.
“I was actually in Mexico and had to sit in my room and couldn’t do anything. I started getting on TikTok and I made a few videos and from there, I started loving it. I got on all the time,” said Giddey. “I think a lot of NBA guys started to get on it and it’s become one of the biggest social media platforms.”
Giddey listed off Giannis Antetokounmpo and Cole Anthony as NBA players he watches a lot on TikTok.
