As most Sixer fans know, Iverson was selected first overall in the famous 1996 NBA Draft. Winning the Most Valuable Player award in 2000-01 season, Iverson led the 76ers to their first Finals appearance since 1983. Iverson spent 12 of his 14 seasons in the NBA with the Sixers, including stints with the Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies. Iverson rejoined the 76ers for his final season in 2011, retiring from the NBA later that year.

Iverson was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2016, alongside O’Neal and Rockets legend Yao Ming — cementing his legacy as one of the greatest players to ever set foot on a basketball court.
