Allen Iverson is making a return
to Philadelphia.
Iverson has accepted the Philadelphia 76ers' invitation to
return for his bobblehead night Saturday and will present the game ball before
they play Charlotte.
Sixers CEO Adam Aron says Iverson rearranged his schedule to
make the trip to Philadelphia. The Sixers will salute one of their greatest
players with a video tribute.
Iverson led the Sixers to the 2001 NBA finals and is firmly
cemented as one of the franchise's all-time greats. He is the franchise leader
in 40-point games (76), 3-pointers (885), and is second behind Hal Greer in
points (19,931). He had two stints with the Sixers and last played for them in
2009-10.
Aron says Iverson decided to return because "he loves
his fans and he loves Philadelphia."
