Allen Iverson is going to miss the next three games with the Philadelphia 76ers due to an undiagnosed illness of his four-year-old daughter, Messiah. He already missed two weeks earlier in the year due to the sickness. The Sixers are calling his leave "indefinite," according to the Camden Courier Post.
"At this time, we feel that it is in the best interest of the Sixers, Allen and his family that he be allowed to deal with a very serious issue that is far greater than the game of basketball," Sixers president and general manager Ed Stefanski said.
Some are thinking this could be it for Iverson and the Sixers, though. Yahoo! Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski reported yesterday that some in the organization are ready to send Iverson packing. The fact that it's never clear when Iverson is going to be in the lineup or not is starting to bug folks.
Sixers coach Eddie Jordan supposedly told his players on Sunday that Iverson might not be back.
