[JCowley] Josh Giddey speaks out on the Bulls waiving Jaden Ivey: “I hope he gets the help he needs, whatever he’s going through. I do really hope he gets help. It’s not going to be with the Bulls anymore, but wherever it is, I hope he gets it.”
Giddey: ‘‘He’s obviously a very talented player, It’s tough. We didn’t get to spend a lot of time with him individually. We’re trying to acclimate new guys to the system.
Obviously, the whole thing is kind of unfortunate in a way. I hope he gets the help he needs, whatever he’s going through or not going through. I do really hope he gets help. It’s not going to be with the Bulls anymore, but wherever it is, I hope he gets it.’’

Analysis Summary
The core event is real — the Bulls did waive Ivey over anti-LGBTQ comments. But the post misattributes the quote: this appears to be coach Billy Donovan speaking, not Josh Giddey. The source link doesn't match the content at all. The post obscures what actually happened (controversial social media posts about Pride Month) with a sympathetic framing that sidesteps the substance.

“Bulls waived Jaden Ivey”
Confirmed: Bulls waived Ivey on March 30, 2026 for conduct detrimental to team.
“Ivey is 'a very talented player' and 'tough' situation”
