Between 2014 and 2018, Grayson Allen played at Duke University under the legendary Mike Krzyzewski. And this summer, the Suns player returned to these lands, to come and train in the “Michael W. Krzyzewski Center”.
He reunited with an old friend, Jon Scheyer, the Blue Devils coach since 2022 and the departure of “coach K”, who was an assistant coach when the shooter wore this jersey in the NCAA.
“I trained with Scheyer like in the old days,” he explains in a Duke video. “The coach was there setting up individual drills, which was cool to watch. Scheyer and I are in touch and talk pretty regularly. It was cool to come back, take a day when I was in town to come work with him.”
Number 1 in the NBA at 3-pointers!
The most skillful 3-point player last season with 46% success behind the arc and extended this summer for 70 million dollars, Grayson Allen knows that he will have to improve and confirm the coming season.
“I put things in place to prepare for training camp and preseason, to get the shots I think I'm going to get during the season, the shots I had last season.”he specifies.
The former Milwaukee player also did some weight training this summer to gain power. “I’m pretty strong physically, now it’s about having more speed, explosiveness, being able to move faster despite the weight. I’m working on speed, power. I’m trying to get back to my optimal physical shape. And go a little faster, a little harder and be ready for October.”
