A compelling and candid memoir from Allen Iverson, the NBA?s most misunderstood Hall of Famer, detailing his tough childhood in Virginia, his entry into the league as the number one overall pick, and his controversial, culturechanging pro basketball career.In Misunderstood, Allen Iverson shares in searing clarity and touching candor his meteoric rise from impoverished child in the Virginia projects to high school champion to Georgetown University protg of legendary coach John Thompson, and finally to NBA AllStar and Reebok?s Vice President of Basketball.Allen Iverson is a household nameBoomers and Gen Xers watched his decadeslong run as a scrappy, tenacious basketball player on the Philadelphia 76ers who redefined the sport?s style (both fashionwise and playingwise), while millennials and Gen Zers are perhaps more familiar with his Reebok line?s resurgence in popularity, his callout in Post Malone?s viral hit ?White Iverson,? and for being the namesake of Kendall Roy?s son on Succession. Part athletic legend, part fashion icon, part hiphop muse, Iverson was one of the first celebrities to fuse lifestyle, culture, and sports.But while everyone may know his name, few have seen behind the curtain on Iverson?s tumultuous life. Misunderstood lifts the veil and brings you into the mind of the pugnacious, ultratalented misfit whose foremost goal, more than fame or fortune, was always to lift his family and friends out of poverty and violence. In his memoir, Iverson explores how he completely shattered the mold dictating what an NBA star could be in the 1990s and 2000s, all while dealing with legal troubles and personal traumas that only contributed to his sense of individualism and star power. This is the unforgettable story of a trailblazer who not only changed the game of basketball but rewrote the rules of what it means to rise, fall, and rise again while staying unapologetically true to himself.
