It’s not like he was playing against elite competition, but when the Utah Jazz opened exhibition play against the Perth Wildcats, Grayson Allen made a nice impression.
The rookie from Duke was 5-5 from the floor in the first half, finishing with 19.
Donovan Mitchell, who has been one of Allen’s biggest boosters, said this recently about the rookie: “He has that poise. I was really, really impressed just by watching.He just has that way where he’s not fazed by a lot, and I think that’s going to pay dividends down the line when we get to the playoffs.
