Last year I wrote that Duke’s Grayson Allen was destined to become the next Duke villain, continuing the legacy of Christian Laettner and J.J. Redick by being the most obnoxious player in college basketball.

It appears he’s embracing the role.

On Monday night during Duke’s game against Louisville Allen was knocked to the ground, and while still down, stuck his leg out to trip Louisville’s Ray Spalding who was heading up the court the other way.

Allen received a flagrant foul, but wasn’t ejected for the trip.

The atmosphere at the game was charged from the get go, as Duke fans rubbed it in that Louisville will miss the postseason this year thanks to a self-imposed punishment over a scandal involving the alleged hiring of escorts for recruits.
