For all the hate he generates, Grayson Allen is legit NBA player.
Hot take.
I’ve always liked Grayson Allen, since watching him at Duke and I was hoping that the C’s would draft him. Has he acted immature in the past, yes. Dude competes, though. He plays hard.
The guy injured Alex Caruso earlier in the season. That guy plays very dirty don’t understand Celticsblogs infatuation with him.
Yeah, he's not "immature". That is an absolutely infantilising way to gloss over his horrible nature.
Nobody has questioned his ability to play basketball. He's just a garbage person
Well, his teammates would disagree with you. Giannis went on and on about Grayson during his postgame interview earlier today.
“He’s humble, he’s hungry, he plays with a chip on his shoulder. Plays hard every single night defensively and offensively. No matter how the game goes, he keeps us accountable. He knows that we need him and he’s a great player. He wants the ball. Wants to be the guy that makes shots and make plays. He’s not scared to make plays. He fits in really well with us.”
What a shock! His current teammate sticks up for him! I really thought Giannis would actually come out and call him scum after Allen dropped 27 
His teammates have liked him everywhere he has been, both in college and pro’s. He’s an irritant like a Draymond Green. GS fans love Green opposing teams hate him, same goes for Grayson Allen. You can dislike him if you want, but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a good player.
