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 from him earlier in life during his time at the University of Connecticut before he joined the NBA — 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 managed to balance sports and academics before he left school early to join the Assocation.
