[ASFN Admin]

Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson is one of the top players the game has ever seen. Despite standing at just 6-feet tall, Iverson took on the giants of the game and averaged 26.7 points, 6.2 assists, and 3.7 rebounds for his career while also being a cultural icon.

Iverson made sure he did things his way. He wanted to make sure anything he did was done the Iverson way and that's how he earned the respect he was able to get in this league. The star guard won an MVP with the Sixers in 2001, while also guiding them to the finals that season, and his No. 3 was worn by everybody from different cultures and walks of life.

Klutch's Rich Paul gave major respect to Iverson as he believes his celebrity status was bigger than the likes of Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal.
