Los Angeles Clippers guard J.J. Redick can certainly relate to the scrutiny besieging Duke Blue Devils star Grayson Allen, who's been criticized as a dirty player of late after tripping Florida State's Xavier Rathan-Mayes this past Thursday.
Redick was in the national spotlight during his Duke heyday and spoke on his podcast Monday about how certain Blue Devils have been media-manufactured targets to condemn, per USA Today's Nina Mandell and Lila Bromberg:
I think it's fine for an opposing fan base to choose a player to root against or maybe you dislike certain guys, my issue though is I think the media has perpetuated this white Duke villain myth as much as anyone.
