Grayson Allen is used to negative attention, and he certainly saw the reaction he received from Chicago Bulls fans on Friday coming. In fact, the Milwaukee Bucks guard was actually quite unimpressed with what he was subjected to.
Allen was the target of Bulls fans’ ire on Friday as the Bucks visited Chicago. It was Milwaukee’s first visit since Allen’s hard foul on the Bulls’ Alex Caruso, which was called dirty by a number of observers and knocked Caruso out of action for an extended period of time.
Allen was booed pretty much every time he touched the ball Friday, and Bulls fans let him have it as much as they could. The former Duke guard was unimpressed, however, saying after the game that he had endured far worse in college.
The worst part of Allen’s night might have been this hard foul, not the boos. After all, he was a very controversial figure in college for good reason, and plenty of student sections singled him out. He probably did hear worse back then.
