Josh Giddey has clicked into gear to turn Oklahoma City's much-hyped first date with Victor Wembanyama's San Antonio into a runaway statement NBA victory.
The Australia guard snapped out of any sort of funk he had been in beginning his third season at the Thunder, finishing with 18 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and two blocks in the 123-87 home win.
The build-up was all about Wembanyama's (eight points, 14 rebounds) first regular season match-up with Thunder star rookie Chet Holmgren (nine points, seven rebounds).
