Spencer Dinwiddie: Nets ‘look forward to dunking on Jarrett Allen’

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - Jarrett Allen could return tonight for the Cavs in Brooklyn after missing four games with a right eye contusion.

Spencer Dinwiddie of the Nets (jokingly) hopes he does.

This is sarcasm btw. Years ago, Dinwiddie was the first player to predict Allen would one day be an All-Star. https://t.co/r0TBR2DDGE

Dinwiddie and Allen were teammates with the Nets until Allen was traded to Cleveland in 2021.

Cleveland is fourth in the East at 45-28, while Brooklyn is sixth at 39-32.

The two teams will play tonight and Thursday at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center.
