While his passion can be seen after every big play with a flex and a roar to the crowd, Gregg thinks he has a more mellow personality than what fans might perceive. He didn’t need to be outspoken in the past, as guys like Corey Kispert and later Anton Watson took on the responsibility of being the team’s role model. As the longest-tenured Zag heading into the 2024-25 season, that baton is passed onto Gregg.
Off the court, Gregg’s generosity and philanthropy have exemplified what it means to be a leader in the community. With every NIL deal he’s signed a form of community service has followed — whether that be with the Salvation Army’s “Red Kettle” campaign during the holidays or back-to-school shopping with kids in the summer, Gregg has found different ways to give back to those in both Spokane and his hometown of Clackamas, Oregon.
“Getting those types of awards, I think they mean more than the basketball, on-the-court stuff,” Gregg said. “That’s something I pride myself on. Just being able to help the community wherever I can.” “Rick Clark has been huge for me, and Rasir, seeing what they did in the community while he was here, I just kind of tagged along and me and Rick’s relationship grew,” Gregg said. “We continue to do stuff in the community whenever we can help kids get clothes for the winter, giving families food.”
