Grayson Allen reflects on his time with Suns before Hornets matchup

Grayson Allen is set to return to the Mortgage Matchup Center on Thursday with the Charlotte Hornets. He expressed fond memories of his time with the Phoenix Suns, where he had a career-high 42 points in a game and improved his overall game under coach Jordan Ott. Allen was traded to the Hornets during the offseason but remains appreciative of his time in Phoenix. His contributions to the community and the franchise's resurgence were well-regarded, making him a missing piece for the Suns. The Hornets are currently dealing with injuries and have inserted Allen into the starting lineup, where he aims to build on his past performances in front of Suns fans.
