Hampton native and basketball Hall of Famer Allen Iverson is bringing it all back home. The first ever Allen Iverson Roundball Classic tips on Wednesday night and there are different events that run through Friday.
On Wednesday it's the regional high school all-stars, plus a slam dunk and 3-point shooting competition at Bethel High School.
There is an awards banquet on Thursday.
Friday is the grand finale at Churchland High School in Portsmouth, the all-star game from high school stars across the nation.
We chatted with Iverson on Wednesday. He was thrilled to return home and bring all the excitement to the area, "I think this is the perfect opportunity to bring it back where I'm from. I want these guys to feel the energy I felt coming out of here."
