Brooklyn Nets
“I’m normally a pesto on my pasta type of guy, but today I went with Alfredo sauce.”
You heard right … the sauce is what caused Brooklyn Nets’ Jarrett Allen to GO OFF on the Utah Jazz on Tuesday.
The 6’11” Allen usually comes off the bench behind DeAndre Jordan — but the 22-year-old center got the starting nod on Tuesday and went FULL beastmode!
Final stat line — 19 points, 8 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks!
Allen even put Rudy Gobert on a poster TWICE — with the Nets dominating the Jazz in a 130 to 96 victory.
😤 HUGE GAME for @_bigjayy_ ! 😤

So what fueled his amazing performance?? Allen says it was all about the pre-game meal!
“Before the games, I’m normally a pesto on my pasta type of guy, but today, I went with alfredo sauce,” Allen said post-game.
“So I really think that was the thing that turned my game on tonight.”
The Nets take on the 76ers on Thursday — someone tell the team chef to load up on the white sauce!!!
