Myron Allen’s international career included an early stint in Israel with Ironi Ashkelon during the 2006–07 season, before later moving through leagues in China, Mexico and Venezuela across multiple seasons.
In China’s CBA, Allen played two seasons with the Xinjiang Flying Tigers in 2008–09 and 2009–10, and his 2009–10 CBA production was listed at 15.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 2.4 steals per game while sharing the roster with imports such as Charles Gaines and local veterans including Mengke Bateer.
Allen then moved to Shandong for the 2010–11 CBA season, with season figures listed at 32 games and 15.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.9 steals per game, and he was one of the club’s imports alongside Rodney White. He also recorded a 19-point outing in a documented CBA game against Guangdong during that season.
Allen played with Correcaminos UAT Victoria in Mexico’s domestic league in 2010–11 prior to signing with Melbourne, and his later Correcaminos runs included significant LNBP production and league recognition.
In the 2011–12 LNBP season with Correcaminos, Allen’s line was listed at 39 games with averages of 16.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 2.0 steals per game, and he was credited as the league steals leader with 61. During the same period he was part of Correcaminos squads that included Robert Brown, Franco Harris, Steve Monreal, Anwar Ferguson and DeVaughn Lamont, and a noted early-season example was a 26-point, eight-assist performance in a win over Soles de Mexicali.
Allen returned for the 2012–13 LNBP season with Correcaminos and was listed at 18.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.4 steals per game across 32 games, while continuing to move through Mexican competitions including CIBACOPA with Ostioneros de Guaymas, where his multi-year lines included 24.6 points per game in an 18-game stretch and later seasons featuring 6.7 and 7.4 assists per game.
From 2013–14 onward, Allen’s international stops also included Toros Nuevo Laredo in the LNBP, a Venezuelan season with Gigantes where his listed production included 21.8 points and 5.7 assists per game, and further Mexican stints with Fuerza Regia, Garra Cañera de Navolato and Aguilas Doradas de Durango, with multiple seasons in Mexico recorded at 17–22 points per game depending on team and league.
Allen’s college path began at Trinity Valley CC in 2000 before he moved on to Lee College for the 2001 and 2002 seasons, then later joined North Dakota for the 2002-03 season (2003).
At Lee College in 2001-02, Allen played for the Runnin’ Rebels in a 23-9 season under head coach Roy Champagne, and he was named NJCAA All-Region XIV First Team as a sophomore after producing across the full schedule as one of the team’s primary creators and scorers.
In that 2001-02 season at Lee College, Allen appeared in 32 games and logged 981 minutes, scoring 618 points (19.3 points per game) while shooting 223-for-476 from the field (46.8%), going 51-for-153 on three-pointers (33.3%), and making 121-of-154 free throws (78.6%).
Across those 32 games, Allen totaled 200 rebounds (60 offensive, 140 defensive), along with 220 assists (6.9 per game), 74 steals (2.3 per game), 2 blocks, 99 personal fouls, and 163 turnovers, and his single-game season highs included 17 assists (vs Angelina), 8 steals (vs San Jacinto), 11 made free throws (vs Navarro), and 14 free throw attempts (vs Angelina).
Lee College’s 2001-02 team totals were 2,984 points across 32 games (93.3 per game), and as a team the Runnin’ Rebels shot 1,111-for-2,379 from the field (46.7%), 317-for-842 from three (37.6%), and 445-for-647 at the line (68.8%), with the roster stat breakdown listing 919 total offensive rebounds and 626 defensive rebounds for 1,545 team rebounds, plus 596 assists, 223 steals, and 308 blocks across the season.
After his two seasons at Lee College, Allen signed with North Dakota on April 23, 2002, and his stint in Grand Forks became a brief on-court run followed by an eligibility ruling, as he averaged 20.5 points per game in eight games during the 2002-03 season before the NCAA stripped his eligibility and denied an appeal related to a 1999 issue tied to involvement with an agent and a tryout connected to the Fargo-Moorhead Beez, including an alleged travel stipend and his name appearing in a box score, with Allen departing the program in late January 2003 after the case escalated publicly in early February.
