Iverson Scores First-Ever Quadruple-Triple in Development League
After failing to consummate a trade for Allen Iverson, the Philadelphia 76ers sent him to their NBA Development League affiliate Fort Worth Flyers. In his first game for the Flyers, Iverson’s stat line read: 100 points, 100 assists, 100 steals, 100 rebounds, making him the first player in history to earn a “Quadruple-Triple” in the Flyers 347-63 win over the Arkansas Rimrockers.
Iverson was sent back on his forced vacation after the team decided that he did not need any further development. However, Sixers chairman Ed Snider did announce that he is sending General Manager Billy King to Fort Worth for some GM development. “We’re going back to the fundamentals. Billy is going to work on some trades of undrafted kids, maybe some role players. We think with a little bit of work on his game, Billy will get back to trading at a high enough level to work out a deal with a superstar like Allen Iverson,” Snider explained.
The game was historic as it was probably the last taste of victory this winter for anyone a) associated with the Philadelphia 76ers; and b) associated with any team called the “Flyers”
