Allen Iverson Reacts To Being Named Hall Of Fame Presenter For Dwyane Wade

Dwyane Wade is set for induction into the Hall of Fame next month with Allen Iverson as his presenter

Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade grew up a huge fan of Allen Iverson. 

So it came as no surprise when Wade announced Iverson would present him for his Hall of Fame induction next month in Springfield, Mass. Iverson recently reacted to Wade's decision. 

Iverson posted this on his Instagram account Sunday, "What an honor!!"

It was an easy choice for Wade, who spoke of their friendship during his final season in 2019. 

"When I was a kid, Michael Jordan was No. 1," Wade said at the time. "Allen Iverson was No. 2 and obviously Kobe [Bryant] was No. 3. My top three favorite players of all-time." 

Wade and Iverson had similar games. Both were willing to throw their bodies all over the court. They also wore No. 3. 

"He's one of the two reasons I wear No. 3," Wade said. "Every time I see him, it's all love. I try to rep that No. 3 to the fullest. I hope I made him proud."
