Iverson, is a 10-time All-Star, former league MVP, is ranked fifth in NBA scoring and guided Philadelphia to the 2001 NBA Finals.
He played three games for Memphis before taking a leave of absence to deal with personal matters, and then was waived by the Grizzlies after he and the team agreed to part ways.
Iverson was unhappy with a reserve role with Memphis, as he had been in Detroit the season before.
