“One hundred percent,” Giddey replied, when asked if it was fair to only judge him that way. “(The Dallas series) was probably the experience I needed, you know? I’d much rather go through that at 21 years old than at 30 and be in the playoffs for the first time, so it was one of the toughest lessons I ever learned, but it was also the right thing at that time. Maybe not the right thing, but what I needed. “Obviously going through that, I’m going to be better for it, and when this team gets to that stage, playing those types of meaningful games, I’m ready to go.”

One of my favorite stories to write in a while because of how self-aware Josh Giddey is as a dude. While his stats are great, he knows how he should be judged, and he wants the chance to prove it. If you like Giddey, you’ll like him more …

Giddey took advantage of every minute of it last May after the Thunder’s season ended. “I’ll never forget going back on the plane to Australia,” Giddey said. “First, I was ready to get out of there because it was obviously a long year for a number of reasons, but you’re just sitting there with your thoughts for 15 hours, and the Wi-Fi was down so I couldn’t even pass time on my phone. I was just there thinking, and I remembered one of the Morris twins (Markieff) came up to me before I left and said, ‘You’re too good to let that happen to you.’ “From that point on my mind has been the next time I get to the postseason, what happened in that playoff series is never going to happen again.” -via Chicago Sun-Times / April 7, 2025
