After 20-year, Hall of Fame NBA career, Ray Allen’s relatively brief three-year stint at UConn can fall into the backdrop. He won a handful of accolades in college, but absolutely shined as a pro. He won two NBA titles with the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat, made 10 All-Star games and hit countless clutch shots en route to setting the all-time 3-pointers mark.
He found his confidence, and his legendary textbook jump shot, in Storrs.
Growing up in Dalzell, South Carolina, Allen was sought after as a recruit but wasn’t viewed as one of the elite, can’t-miss prospects.
