Allen told The Commercial Appeal's Damichael Cole that his No. 9 will join Marc Gasol's No. 33 and Zach Randolph's No. 50 in the rafters at FedExForum at some point during the 2024-25 season. The Grizzlies were planning to retire Allen's number during the 2021-22 season but he asked the team to delay the honor while he dealt with a federal charge for allegedly being part of a multi-million dollar health insurance fraud scheme. Allen and his wife, Desiree, pleaded guilty and were sentenced to community service and three years probation. Between 2010-17 Allen, aka. "The Grindfather," was a three-time NBA All-Defensive First Team member and was twice named to the Second Team. He was part of the franchise's "core four," along with Gasol, Randolph and Mike Conley, that made seven straight playoff appearances and reached the 2013 Western Conference finals. Allen also won the NBA title in 2008 while a member of the Boston Celtics. The Grizzlies are also planning to release a documentary on Allen's journey from Chicago to the NBA around his number retirement ceremony. “I’m looking forward to it,” Allen said. “Hopefully, I have a box of tissue with me.” Tony Allen 在效力灰熊期間 獲選六次年度防守陣容 一二隊各三次 心得： 延遲了那麼久的退休儀式終於要在下一季舉行了 如果沒有07年的扣籃不知道tony Allen 能不能成為明星球員 但至少他專注在防守這件事已經足以名留青史 雖然有點晚節不保 但還是恭喜他 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 36.227.53.3 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://webptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1715107388.A.824.html
