Born in Hampton, Virginia, Allen Ezail Iverson grew up with his mom, who was only 15 years old when she had him. His dad was rarely around for his son. Despite the rocky family life, Iverson was a beast on the field.
Throughout his basketball career Allen Iverson bagged an eye-popping sum of $154.8 million. Much of those earnings came from his time in Philadelphia where he was a scene stealer and fan favorite. Overall, he pocketed $98 million as a 76er.
He landed a lifetime gig with Reebok worth $800,000 a year. Plus, Reebok stashed away a $32-million trust fund for Iverson that he’ll be able to access when he turns 55 in 2030.
