Report: Ray Allen is interested in returning, perhaps with the Warriors


Ray Allen Clutch Three Pointers Mix of 2012-13 NBA Season

The opportunity to play for the Golden State Warriors seemingly is too tempting for anyone to pass up -- even players who are recently retired.

Ray Allen has interest in returning with the Warriors and his representatives have reached out to the team, according to an ESPN report.

Allen, who will turn 41 later this month, last played with the Miami Heat during the 2013-14 season when he teamed with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. He sat out the past two seasons, despite drawing heavy interest from the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2015.

Allen would add yet another 3-point threat to a team that already boasts arguably the two best marksmen in the league with Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. During his 18 seasons in the NBA, Allen averaged 18.9 points per game and shot 40 percent from 3-point range. He won NBA titles with the Boston Celtics in 2008 and the Heat in 2013.

Allen, a 10-time All-Star, also would consider returning with the Cavaliers, San Antonio Spurs and Los Angeles Clippers, according to the ESPN report.

Already this week, Golden State has added former MVP Kevin Durant, the biggest free-agent prize on the market. The two-time defending Western Conference champions, who won a record 73 games last season, also reportedly have a deal in place with veteran power forward David West.
