 DENVER (AP) - Allen Iverson will skip the All-Star Game because of a sprained right ankle that has bothered him for two weeks.
Iverson was chosen as a reserve to the Western Conference squad for Sunday's game in Las Vegas, but the Denver Nuggets guard has missed seven of his last eight games after spraining his right ankle Jan. 29. The eight-time All-Star aggravated the injury Feb. 6 against New Orleans.
"Here is a guy who has always played with injuries and always played banged up. So if he's not able to play in the All-Star game he must be really hurt," teammate Marcus Camby said Tuesday.
