The Thunder star was one of several to step up in the second half after the Nets enjoyed a 62-52 lead at halftime.
Oklahoma City dominated the third period by outscoring the Nets 38-20 and 31-25 in the final quarter to cement the 14-point victory.
The win was sealed thanks to an absolute arrow from Giddey when he hit his first three-pointer of the game with just over two minutes left on the clock.
Completely unmarked, Giddey took his time before firing a laser from distance which all but iced the contest.
