MEMPHIS, TN (AP) - Memphis owner Michael Heisley says he is not sure of what Allen Iverson's future plans are, though he hopes Iverson returns to the Grizzlies soon.
Heisley granted the 10-time all-star permission Saturday for an indefinite leave to deal with a personal matter. The Commercial Appeal newspaper reported Monday that Iverson is contemplating retirement.
Heisley told The Associated Press on Monday that he doesn't know what's in Iverson's head and thinks Iverson still can play another three NBA seasons. However, Heisley says the 34-year-old Iverson is struggling playing at what the guard feels is less than his previous best.
The owner says he spent two days in California talking with Iverson and hopes his biggest star can get his personal life in order.
