Grayson Allen had an impressive first season with the Suns, leading the NBA in three-point shooting at 46.1%. However, as Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports, his season didn’t end as hoped.
Allen injured his ankle during the first-round playoff series against Minnesota, spraining it in Game 1, aggravating it in Game 2, and missing the final two games.
To improve his strength and durability, Allen quickly began weight training after the season ended. He recently shared a video of himself shooting and working out.
“I’ve got a strong base,” Allen said. “Now it’s moving more towards more speed and explosion, some plyometrics stuff. Moving the weight faster if it’s weighted. A lot of unweighted stuff. Working on some speed, power explosion.
“Trying to get back into that playing shape and be ready and in better shape. A little faster, a little stronger and be ready for October.”
