Allen Iverson: Fallen Star

longreads:

The greatest Sixer of his era finds himself playing minor-league basketball in Turkey and spending his nights at a T.G.I. Friday’s in Istanbul.

I kid him about going to TGI Friday’s in Istanbul, though he doesn’t seem to see it as teasing: “Man, listen,” he says. “I didn’t know that the Philly cheesesteak wrap was that good when I was in Philly. I tried them when I got out here and every day since then. Every day since then!”
