DeMar DeRozan and Grayson Allen
Milwaukee Bucks star Grayson Allen might easily go down in the modern-day NBA history as one of the most ‘hated’ players. From fouling out Alex Caruso out for the season, to elbowing DeMar DeRozan, there is no love for the former Duke player in or around Chicago Bulls franchise and its fanbase.
The latest incident took place in Bulls vs Bucks latest showdown when midway through the third quarter Allen pushed DeMar on the ground. As a result of which, the Bulls main-man came launching forward to confront Allen for his dirty antics, which has seemingly hurt players over the course of years.
Although DeMar DeRozan was held back and the situation was brought to an ease, yet it didn’t stop the fans from chanting or booing Allen throughout the remainder of the game.
That exchange, DeRozan said, only happened because it was Allen who pushed him. If it was just about anybody else, he said, he wouldn’t have reacted the way he did. Given that Allen has always been on the hit list of Bulls’ players ever since he caused Caruso that particular ‘wrist’ injury after purposely pulling him down, DeMar made it absolutely clear on how he feels for the ‘culprit’ Allen.
“It’s his track record. If it was Boban, I wouldn’t have did nothing,” DeRozan said. “Who knows, I didn’t know if it was on purpose or what happened. I just felt an excessive hit, that’s all it was.”
