Why he might be annoying:

    He decided to fore go his remaining college eligibility in order to pursue an NBA career.
    His draft selection was met with controversy as some basketball pundits felt the NBA Draft Lottery was rigged in order to give the Cavs a franchise player to build around in wake of LeBron James departure.
    He only played in eleven games at Duke as a result of injuries.
    He appeared as 'Uncle Drew' in various Pepsi Max commercials.
    He broke his hand after he smacked it against a padded wall, causing him to miss a portion of his second NBA season.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was born in Melbourne when his father, Drederick played professional basketball in the country.
    He and his sister were raised by their father and aunt, following the death of their mother.
    He grew up a fan of the New Jersey Nets, and attended the team's home games during the 2003 NBA Finals.
    Despite foregoing his remaining college eligibility in athletic competition, he returned to Duke in the off-season to finish his bachelor's degree.
    He was the first Cavaliers rookie since LeBron to be drafted first overall and earn Rookie of the Year honors in the same season (2012).
