ESPN reporter calls Milwaukee Bucks Grace Allen a pawn
Extreme characterization of Michael Wilbon calling Grayson Allen a pawn before the Eastern Derby between the Bulls and the Bucks in Chicago.
Hours before the Bucks’ visit to the United Center for the Bulls, the main topic of discussion regarding the game was the treatment Grayson Allen would have after the unsportsmanlike foul that resulted in Alex Caruso’s injury a few weeks ago on the Fiserv forum in Milwaukee. The champion’s player was frowned upon, but there was a rather unfortunate moment from an ESPN journalist who… overdid it.
“Grayson Allen is a farmer. let’s be honest“It was the conversation of Michael Wilbon, a veteran journalist, with which both famed analyst Steven A. Smith and veteran basketball player Jalen Rose seemed to agree.
