Mar 2 G Allen Iverson will not return to the team this season according to team president Ed Stefanski. Iverson has been dealing with his four-year-old daughter's undisclosed illness of late. "After discussing the situation with Allen, we have come to the conclusion that he will not return to the Sixers for the remainder of the season, as he no longer wishes to be a distraction to the organization and teammates that he loves very deeply," Stefanski said. "It has been very difficult for Allen and the team to maintain any consistency as he tries to balance his career with his personal life." Iverson averaged 13.9 points and 4.1 assists for the 76ers in 25 games this season.
