Report: Allen Iverson Broke And Off To Play Professionally In Venezuela

by Tom Lorenzo | 11:12 am, February 18th, 2012

Apparently this is what happens when you’re broke and no NBA team wants to sign you. The one-time MVP and 11-time All-Star, Allen Iverson, is reportedly signing at some point today to play basketball professionally in Venezuela. After losing some $150 million and failing to get the attention of prospective pro suitors here in the US, Iverson will now lace up for Guaros de Lara, who are now no longer in the market for a point guard. So, there’s that. [Sportando]
