Look at this man. The face of an icon. When Allen Iverson was growing up, they called him “Bubba Chuck” - a two-sport athlete who dropped jaws on the football field at Bethel High while becoming a legend on the hardwood. He learned the crossover at Georgetown - then he perfected it. By the time he hit the league, it felt like a religious experience. After being drafted as the first pick in ‘96, his unyielding sense of self-expression gave the NBA an image.
Uncompromising? Shoot, Iverson made basketball meet him at the playground.
