Off night in loss Giddey finished with eight points (3-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals over 34 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 94-87 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Giddey put in 34 minutes of work but ended up with his worst scoring total of the month in the defeat. He shot an abysmal 25 percent from the floor and was 1-of-6 from three-point range. The Thunder depend on Giddey, as their second-best scoring option behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and while this blip on the radar is worthy of some concern, Giddey's line is an outlier among his other performances this season.

It would have been his second one this season already, as Giddey accomplished the feat against the Mavericks on Jan. 2. The Australian's nine points Wednesday snapped a streak of eight straight games in double figures offensively.

Puts up double-double Giddey recorded 11 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds, three assists and one block across 30 minutes during Saturday's 107-102 loss to the Cavaliers.

Ties season high with 19 points Giddey contributed 19 points (8-17 FG, 3-11 3Pt), seven assists, three rebounds and one steal across 31 minutes during Thursday's 130-109 win over the Nets.

Impact Giddey's rebound total was his lowest in 16 games, but he made up for the quiet night on the boards by matching his season-high scoring mark. The rookie also dished seven dimes, trailing only Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for the team lead in that category. Giddey continues to impress as an all-around contributor for fantasy managers -- he is posting per-game averages of 11.5 points, 7.3 boards, 6.4 assists, 1.1 three-pointers and 1.1 steals on the campaign.
