UNION, Ky. — The transfer portal may have upended college basketball this offseason, but at least one Kentucky player says he had no interest in testing out the sport’s latest trend.
“The biggest thing for me was I pride myself in working hard,” sophomore guard Dontaie Allen said Wednesday at UK’s satellite camp at Ryle High School. “I’m not a quitter by any means. So, coming back, it was more, what else do I got to add into my regimen? What do I have to do differently?”
Allen showed off his immense scoring potential in a handful of games during his debut season as a redshirt freshman in 2020-21 but spent most of the year bouncing in and out of the primary rotation.
