Turns out Allen Iverson was handed two big breakups this week – one from, his NBA team, the other from his wife. According to reports, Tawanna Iverson filed papers Tuesday in Atlanta’s Fulton County Superior Court saying their 8½-year marriage is “irretrievably broken.” On the same day, the Philadelphia 76ers announced he would not return for the rest of the season. After returning to the 76ers as a free agent in December, Iverson flew to Atlanta in February to be with his family as his four-year-old daughter, Messiah, dealt with an undisclosed illness. Tawanna is asking for full custody of the couple’s five children, child support and alimony.
