You Tube Gold: Duke’s Most Hated Player?

In this video, former Duke star Grayson Allen visits with JJ Redick on his podcast and the two members of the Brotherhood find a natural topic of conversation: who was the most hated Duke player?

Both went through the mill. Redick saw his family attacked, including his youngest sister, and the abuse grew to the point where he nearly quit playing basketball. Fortunately, he overcame that and went on to become the ACC’s all-time leading scorer, a record that later fell to UNC’s Tyler Hansbrough.

As for Allen, he really invited it with his tripping incidents at Duke and at one point, after being ejected after the Elon incident, lost emotional control on the bench to the point where we noticed on TV and were worried about him.
