Two-time NBA champion Ray Allen announced his retirement from basketball on Tuesday after 18 seasons, finally ending the long-running guessing game over his future. Allen, a virtual certainty to enter basketball's Hall of Fame, is the NBA's all-time leader in three-pointers with 2,973. Allen was chosen as the fifth outright pick in the 1996 draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves before being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks.
