PHILADELPHIA (AP) -Allen Iverson has returned to the Philadelphia 76ers after missing five games to be with his ill daughter and expects to play Tuesday night against Miami.
Iverson returned to practice Monday for the first time since Feb. 2. Iverson was voted an Eastern Conference All-Starter, but skipped Sunday’s game to spend additional time with his family. He says doctors are still not sure what is ailing his 4-year-old daughter, Messiah.
Coach Eddie Jordan says he has not decided if Iverson will start against the Heat. Iverson has averaged 14.4 points in 25 games since he returned to the Sixers in December.
