Allen Iverson, the former NBA star known for his controversial personality and on-court brilliance, recently opened up about his personal journey during an interview with Stephen A. Smith on ESPN’s ‘First Take’. The discussion, which took place on Wednesday, focused on his experiences with sobriety and the lowest point in his life, which he has now reflected on in his new memoir, ‘Misunderbed’.
The memoir, which is set to be released soon, is expected to provide a candid look into the challenges Iverson has faced both on and off the court. In the interview, Iverson shared how the lowest point in his life was a wake-up call that led him to seek sobriety, a journey he describes as transformative. He acknowledged the complexities of maintaining sobriety in the public eye, especially given his past struggles with substance abuse.
