Before Ray Allen became an NBA World Champion, before he emerged as the greatest three point shooter of all time, and before he turned into a 10-time NBA All-Star, he was Jesus Shuttlesworth in the Spike Lee-directed ‘He Got Game’ film. Memories of that movie were rekindled last night, as Mr. Allen went by the name of J. Shuttlesworth in the debut of Miami’s ‘Name Collection’ jerseys last night. The correlation between the classic film and the last night’s game didn’t stop there. Allen also opted to wear the Air Jordan 13 White/Black-True Red, a shoe Denzel Washington (Ray Allen’s father in the movie) laced up in the film that is often referred to as the “He Got Game” Air Jordan 13. Spike Lee was also in attendance at last night’s nationally televised game between the Heat and the Nets.
