Mike Conley’s next visit to Memphis…will it be to retire his jersey?
Quite logically, since he is 38 years old and in his 19th season in the league, Mike Conley he doesn’t know what the future will be at the end of this season. Therefore, every evening has a special taste.
“Every match I play now, I think it’s my last”, assures the playmaker. “I know I want to play a few more years, but we don’t know how it will turn out. Injuries can happen, contracts end, you never know.”
Pass to Memphis, the only double pass since the Wolves contested two games in a row in Tennesseeit was emphasized by the feeling of nostalgia because, it should be remembered, he spent twelve seasons in the Grizzly jersey, between 2007 and 2019.
“I have a lot of memories. The fans are crazy, they’ve always been loyal, they’ve always been there for me wherever I’ve been,” he notes. “When I come back to this room and look up, I see familiar faces everywhere. It’s always a pleasure to come to Memphis.”
A specific request for his retired jersey
This may have been his last visit to the FedExForum as a player, as he will one day return to retire his number 11 jersey, as well as that of his former teammates: Tony Allen, Marc Gasol etc Zach Randolph.
“Whenever he comes here, I make sure he looks at those retired jerseys and realizes that’s where he’s going to end up.”says Jaren Jackson Jr., who was a starter during Mike Conley’s final season in Memphis. “He did so much for this place. We played together for a very short time, but it was great.”
Finally, the veteran makes a request to the owners of the Grizzlies, to prepare for this great evening and place his jersey on the ceiling of the room: “I don’t want to be next to Tony Allen. Put me next to Z-Bo or Mark. I want to be on the other side. Tony, it’s a little too much”he laughs.
