Grid 3: Sixers star who was Top-30 in 3-pointers in a Season
Allen Iverson, arguably the best Philadelphia 76ers player of all time, was considered to be a lethal scorer during his prime years. Iverson was the type of player who'd fire from all cylinders and somehow manage to get his shots to go in the basket. He was known to be a little man with a big heart considering how he'd fearlessly attack the rim and challenge the big guys on the court.
Iverson wasn't known to be a premier 3-point shooter. However, he still managed to be a top-30 three-point shooter in a season in his career. He was mostly synonymous with his mid-range shots and relentless assaults toward the rim.
Despite his competitive spirit and desire, Allen Iverson ended his career without ever winning a championship. The closest he ever got to winning a title was back in 2001 when the Sixers faced the LA Lakers in the NBA Finals.
Nevertheless, Iverson still had an amazing career by notching multiple scoring titles and being named an All-Star 13 times.
