Iverson out for at least one more game

 
03.13.2006

Philadelphia, PA (Basketball News) - Philadelphia 76ers All-Star guard Allen Iverson is out for Tuesday’s contest against the Toronto Raptors, and could miss the team’s entire upcoming West Coast road trip.

An MRI on Monday revealed that Iverson sustained a sprain and contusion of the right foot. The injury occurred at the end of the first half against Memphis this past Sunday, when Iverson inadvertently stepped on a ball boy’s foot while backpedaling after a shot. He did not return, but the Sixers held on to beat the Grizzlies, 94-91.

After tangling with the Raptors at the Wachovia Center, Philadelphia will head west to face Seattle, the LA Clippers, and Golden State. Iverson is officially listed as doubtful for the road swing.

The 6-foot, 165-pound slasher is averaging 33.2 points and 7.4 assists per game this season.
