His mother was 15 years old when he was born, and his father abandoned her very early. He played basketball at Georgetown University. Iverson was drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers in 1996. He played there for ten years. He wore number 3. Iverson was best known for his speed, his layups, and his crossovers. In his first season he was named Rookie of the Year (1996-97); in 2001 he was named the NBA's MVP (Most Valuable Player), and he went on to start in seven consecutive All-Star Games (2000-2006) — being named MVP twice (2001 and 2005) — and he played for the United States national team. The absolute peak of his career was the NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers in 2001, in which he managed to halt the Lakers’ winning streak for one game. He was also årned MVP of the year.

In January 2007 he began playing for the Denver Nuggets. He went there because he wanted a different adventure, as he himself said, but mainly to have a chance to win an NBA title. He then went to the Detroit Pistons in November 2008. He was traded for Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess, and Cheikh Samb. In September 2009 he signed a one-year contract with the Memphis Grizzlies. After two months he returned to the Sixers for a season.

On October 26, 2010, Yahoo! Sport reported that Iverson had agreed to a two-year contract of $4 million net per year with the Turkish basketball club Beşiktaş JK. The club announced the signing at a press conference in New York on October 29, 2010. Iverson made his debut for Beşiktaş on November 16, 2010, during a Eurocup game against Serbian Hemofarm. Iverson scored 15 points in 23 minutes.

In August 2013, Iverson put an end to his playing career.
