Iverson tweeted Wednesday that
Memphis had made him an offer, and ESPN.com reported general manager
Chris Wallace confirmed the Grizzlies had made a formal offer. But
on Thursday, Wallace, through a team spokesman, would only say he did not
confirm an offer to ESPN.com.
"We have had a strong level of
interest in Allen Iverson since the beginning of free agency and we
have made that very clear to him," Wallace said in a statement.
Iverson's agent, Leon Rose, did not immediately return a message left at his office by The Associated Press on Thursday.
