TMZ.com is reporting that former Philadelphia 76ers star Allen Iverson skipped out on a BIG3 basketball league game in Dallas over the weekend following an hours long late night visit to a Chicago area casino.
Iverson -- who's the coach and captain of the 3's Company team -- was supposed to be in Dallas to play Team Power but he never showed up after hitting that casino hard.
According to TMZ, Iverson was first spotted at the Rivers Casino in Des Plaines, IL on Saturday night into early Sunday morning. One witness says AI was still in the building at 3 AM. Later Sunday, Iverson showed up at a restaurant wearing the same clothing he was seen in at the casino.
The BIG3 has launched an investigation into the situation.
Iverson reportedly has been frequenting various casinos in recent weeks, often seen with huge stacks of chips in front of him.
Books such as BetOnline were taking action on BIG3 Basketball.
