the commentator is all the best about a collegiate volleyball team, while others are also. i wanted a team that he prefers that one team to keep on saying all the great things (whose actually true) about that team, while leaving out the other team. this is happening! What is the word for a person?

i need a word that denotes overpraising something, albeit everything about it is true.

An adjective that might serve your purposes is partisan : ‘exhibiting blind, prejudiced, and unreasoning allegiance’. As you say, such a person’s commentary can actually be completely accurate as far as it goes, but still fiercely biased.

The same word also works as a noun : ‘a person who shows a biased, emotional allegiance’ (although as a noun it often indicates a combatant, not merely someone with a strong prejudice).
