NBA stars have a lot of serious interactions with the media and the fans, it’s the nature of their job. Most sports fans are extremely invested in how their teams and favorite players are performing, and as such, this responsibility makes players guarded in what they say. But a lot of them also have hilarious personalities, and thanks to social media, they shine through from time to time.
Josh Giddey is one of the rising stars on an exciting young Oklahoma City Thunder team. The talented guard can do it all, as he showed when he became the youngest player in NBA history to record a triple-double. But Giddey has a funnier side to him as well, as he showed when he hilariously joked about teammate Tre Mann’s grandmom. And a recent comparison to a popular actor brought out his humorous nature once again.

NBA University: “Bulls announcer just called Josh Giddey ‘The NBA’s version of Timothée Chalamet’ on the broadcast lol.”

Giddey bears a striking resemblance to Timothee Chalamet, who is one of the most celebrated young talents in Hollywood. In terms of their careers as well, there is a certain similarity between the two. And it’s just like Giddey to own the comparison, even taking the opportunity to hype himself up as ‘Him.’ It’s no wonder that his response was wildly popular among fans.
