The 2009-10 Memphis Grizzlies season was the 15th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

The Grizzlies acquired Allen Iverson, but his stint in Memphis lasted only three games and he left the team due to personal reasons. Iverson then returned to the team where he began his career, the Philadelphia 76ers in December.
