"At that moment, YES Network announcer Tim Capstraw had to let the TV audience know what he was seeing. Grayson Allen, Capstraw told his broadcast part Ryan Ruocco, I can't look at him and not think of Ted Cruz. Ruocco was taken aback by the accuracy of Capstraw's comparison. Man, that is an incredible you are spot-on, man, Ruocco said, You know, I'm not Mr. Politics or anything, Capstraw continued."
"I don't wanna get into that, but that guy, that's a young Ted Cruz to me! Ruocco laughed and joked that Cruz should feel good about that. Yeah, Grayson doesn't feel good about it, though! Capstraw responded. For a number of years, Grayson's supposed resemblance to the senator has been a running joke on social media. Based on a number of side-by-side comparisons posted by social media users, the joke actual has some validity as the two men do appear to favor one another."
During a Phoenix Suns–Brooklyn Nets game, YES Network announcer Tim Capstraw compared Suns guard Grayson Allen to Sen. Ted Cruz on-air, prompting laughter from play-by-play partner Ryan Ruocco. Capstraw said he could not look at Allen without thinking of Cruz and called Allen “a young Ted Cruz.” Ruocco agreed the resemblance was striking. The broadcasters joked that the comparison makes Cruz fortunate and Allen uncomfortable. Social media has long circulated side-by-side images of Allen and Cruz, and those comparisons have convinced many users that the resemblance is notable. Fans continue to post doppelgänger comparisons of NBA players and politicians.
