Josh Giddey breaks silence on trade to Chicago Bulls

The offseason only lasted a few days, but one of the most unexpected trades already happened when Josh Giddey was traded from the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Chicago Bulls for Alex Caruso.

Less than 24 hours ago, Josh Giddey broke his silence after being traded for the first time in his NBA career.

“Okc…thanks for EVERYTHING,” Giddey said on Instagram. “To the city for welcoming me from day one. To Mr. Bennett, Sam and Mark for giving me the opportunity to realize my dream of being an NBA player, I will be forever grateful. My brothers , who I got to share the floor with for 3 years, the best group of guys I could have imagined. Stayed with me through the very highs and the very lows. You know the real me, I’m forever in debt. to Oklahoma and no words will do it justice how much the city and the organization mean to me and my family.”

The loss of Alex Caruso will be a major defensive blow for the Chicago Bulls and also a major improvement for the Oklahoma City Thunder. As Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s role increased on the Thunder, it seemed like Giddey’s role decreased as well. Assuming the Bulls can get rid of Lonzo Ball, Giddey will have a very active role on the Chicago Bulls.
