Duke suspends Allen after tripping Elon player
Grayson Allen is at the center of a tripping controversy again, as the star Duke guard intentionally stuck out his leg and made contact with an Elon player Wednesday night, an incident for which he later apologized.
This marked the third time Allen has intentionally tripped an opposing player in the past year.
Allen was defending Elon's Steven Santa Ana late in the first half, with the Blue Devils ahead. Santa Ana drove past him on the baseline, and Allen stuck his right leg out, sending Santa Ana to the floor.
Allen was assessed a technical foul. He became overly emotional on the bench after he found out about the technical.
