You Tube Gold: Duke’s Most Hated Player?
At Duke, Christian Laettner set a standard for winning, and for infuriating opponents, that has never been equaled.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.
