This was a genius move, and I expect this game to rival the Jordan Brand Classic and McDonald’s All American Game in the near future.
Former 76ers Legend and Hall of Famer Allen Iverson is launching his inaugural All-American Game, and its loaded with 24 of the top HS seniors — taking place April 19-21 in Portsmouth, VA.
There will be a three-point contest and slam dunk contest held at The Answers alma mater Bethel HS on Wednesday, April 19, and an Awards Banquet on Thursday, April 20, which will present the first recipient of the Allen Iverson National Player of the Year Award.
Kentucky commit and Philadelphia native Quade Green was just added to the roster as well.
