I won’t say he’s back from retirement because technically he really never left, but I will say Allen Iverson is back again with the team that drafted him in 1996 the Philadelphia 76ers.
Sixers president Ed Stefanski announced the signing Wednesday on the team’s Web site. Iverson is expected to make his debut Monday at home against the Denver Nuggets.
“In light of the recent injury to Lou Williams, which will sideline him for close to eight weeks, we felt that Allen was the best available free agent guard to help us at this time,” Stefanski said in a release.
Williams, who averaged 17.4 points and 5.1 assists, broke his jaw in Philadelphia’s loss to Washington on Nov. 24.
DearĂ‚Â Allen Iverson, PLEASE don’t blow this.
