Yes, Allen Iverson was a Memphis Grizzly. The legendary number 3 who shook the entire league with every crossover actually never played a game in Memphis. Iverson played three road games and was unhappy with a bench role, leading to his release.

An Allen Iverson Memphis Grizzlies jersey is a rare commodity for many sports fans, because it was a random, short tenure. However, despite the insignificance of his stint, it’s an iconic jersey nonetheless.

Allen Iverson is, technically, the first Memphis Grizzly in the Hall of Fame. He was arguably the first proven legend to wear a Grizzlies uniform.

If any Memphis Grizzlies fan finds this jersey and wears it to a game, they would’ve worn an Iverson jersey more times in the FedEx Forum than AI, himself.
