Is 2017-18 The Year Of Redemption For Grayson Allen?

Next season Duke will have one returning player from last season's team  and that is senior guard Grayson Allen who had an up and done season his junior year. 

 Meanwhile, the rest of team will be all new besides those returning from last season's team that include Marques Bolden, Jack White, Antonio Vrankovic, Javin Delaurier and the walkon's Brennan Besser and Justin Robiunlike last season when Duke did not have a true point guard which eventually came back to bite them against South Carolina where they couldn't handle the pressure and eventually lost 88-81 and from there Frank Martin and South Carolina eventually made it to the final four. Next season, however, Duke will have a true point guard in freshman Trevon Duval. 

During Grayson Allen's time at Duke, he's had his ups and some have been self-inflicted but no one has questioned his talent. "according to http://www.dukebasketballreport.com/2017/6/5/15739050/will-grayson-be-a-senior-sensation-duke-basketball

Last season he played out of position a lot at the point and it was obvious at times that he wasn’t as comfortable at the point as he might have been. And of course, his injuries didn't help.

Grayson Allen is a passionate player and the questions yet to be answered are will he be able to control his emotions on the court and avoid tripping incidents? Will he be able to become a leader for this young and talented team? Will next season be Grayson Allen's  time for redemption to gain back the patch on his jersey and regain his captain status that was stripped from him last season ?
