Injured Iverson sits out against former coach

Iverson sat out Sunday’s practice with his arm in a sling, but received good news that the X-rays taken on his injured shoulder were negative.

In Thursday’s victory over Seattle, Iverson hit the scorer’s table hard with his shoulder while running after a loose ball. He played the following night in Los Angeles in a loss to the Lakers but felt pain causing him to get an X- ray later that night.

Iverson is averaging 27.4 points and 6.6 assists this year for the struggling Sixers.
