Ivy sits down with ESPN to talk career
Along with Shaquille O’Neal and Yao Ming, Allen Iverson was announced last December as a finalist for the Hall-of-Fame. The Answer has been nervous of being inducted as a first-ballot player, like his former basketball peer,s and sat down with ESPN’s Rachel Nichols to briefly discuss his career.
