Ray Allen

Ray Allen was one of the greatest shooters in NBA history and a model of longevity and professionalism. Known for his smooth shooting form, off-ball movement, and clutch performances, Allen played 18 seasons in the NBA with the Bucks, SuperSonics, Celtics, and Heat. He was a 10-time All-Star, a 2-time NBA champion, and held the record for most career 3-pointers made until 2021.

Allen hit one of the most iconic shots in NBA history—his game-tying three in Game 6 of the 2013 NBA Finals for Miami, which helped the Heat win the title. Before his NBA success, he starred at UConn and was named an All-American. Allen’s commitment to fitness, sharp shooting, and poise under pressure earned him a place in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2018.
