At 36, Is it too late for Iverson’s NBA Comeback? Iverson Responds, “I know what I can do.”
At age 36, Allen Iverson is ready to return to the NBA. On a phone interview with ESPN he explained why he thinks a return (after playing 10 games in Turkey) is possible. “It’s me. That’s what gives me confidence. I know what I can do. Everybody in the world knows what I can do. Everybody knows what I can do on the basketball court. Just give me a training camp. Maybe I’ve rubbed people the wrong way as far as saying the things I’ve said in my life and in my career. But if any team needs me to help try and win a championship in any capacity, I’m waiting.” He continued, “All I want is my real fans to know I’m fine, my wife is fine, my kids are fine. I’m fine and I’m looking forward to getting back on a team and being productive like I have been my whole career.” Fellas (and ladies) is it too late for AI’s return?
