Hall of Fame Boston Celtics shooting guard Ray Allen recently found himself back in the news for something his success on the court took away during his time at the University of Connecticut — a complete college education — that he’d made a point of rectifying.
In an interview on the “Dan LeBatard” show, Allen discussed his college graduation and the importance of education, noting that despite the challenges, he balanced sports and academics before he left school early to join the Association.
Allen also shared his perspective on today’s NBA and expressed admiration for Larry Bird and his skills. He considers Bird an influential figure in his own basketball career among other Celtics-centric aspects of the conversation.
