Basketball legend Allen “The Answer” Iverson says basketball great LeBron James “really is the answer” after the future hall of fame inductee agreed to join the Philadelphia Sixers.
LeBron James decided to join the Sixers on a two year deal worth eight million dollars in what he described as the last chapter in his storied career in the NBA.
The Sixers is the fourth club LeBron James has signed for since he got drafted into the NBA as the overall number one pick in 2003 after playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers (in two stints), Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers.
Iverson, who spent a total of 12 seasons across two stints with the Sixers, shared how happy he was with LeBron joining the club during an appearance on the Stephen A. Smith Show.
“I’m just happy for the city of Philadelphia, man.”

“The type of player he is, the type of person he is, he brings a lot; he really is the answer” Iverson said.
41 year old LeBron James, who is a four time NBA champion, averaged 20.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 7.2 assists in 60 games last season.
