Kendrick Perkins: Celtics should retire Ray Allen’s number
The Celtics had 15 players represented on the NBA’s 75th-anniversary team at the All-Star break this past weekend. Of those players, all of them either already have their retired numbers hanging in the TD Garden rafters or, in the case of Kevin Garnett, soon will.
All, that is, except one: Ray Allen.
The superstar sharpshooter, who remains one of the most prolific three-point shooters in NBA history, played six seasons with the Celtics, winning one of his two NBA championships in Boston in 2008 before earning another ring with LeBron James and the Miami Heat in 2013.
