Add to basketPaperback. A compelling and candid memoir from Allen Iverson, the NBAs most misunderstood Hall of Famer, detailing his tough childhood in Virginia, his entry into the league as the number one overall pick, and his controversial, culture-changing pro basketball career. In Misunderstood, Allen Iverson shares in searing clarity and touching candor his meteoric rise from impoverished child in the Virginia projects to high school champion to NBA All-Star and Reeboks Vice President of Basketball. Allen Iverson is a household nameBoomers and Gen Xers watched his decades-long run as a scrappy, tenacious basketball player on the Philadelphia 76ers who redefined the sports style (both fashion-wise and playing-wise), while millennials and Gen Zers are perhaps more familiar with his Reebok lines resurgence in popularity, his callout in Post Malones viral hit White Iverson, and for being the namesake of Kendall Roys son on Succession. Part athletic legend, part fashion icon, part hip-hop muse, Iverson was one of the first celebrities to fuse lifestyle, culture, and sports. But while everyone may know his name, few have seen behind the curtain on Iversons tumultuous life. Misunderstood lifts the veil and brings you into the mind of the pugnacious, ultra-talented misfit whose foremost goal, more than fame or fortune, was always to lift his family and friends out of poverty and violence. In his memoir, Iverson explores how he completely shattered the mold dictating what an NBA star could be in the 1990s and 2000s, all while dealing with legal troubles and personal traumas that only contributed to his sense of individualism and star power. This is the unforgettable story of a trailblazer who not only changed the game of basketball but rewrote the rules of what it means to rise, fall, and rise again while staying unapologetically true to himself. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
