AUBURN HILLS -- Allen Iverson was at The Palace of Auburn Hills this morning receiving treatments for his sore back.
Although he wasn't available to the media, he did release the following statement:
"I'm disappointed that the soreness I'm feeling in my back is going to force me to miss two weeks of action. After talking with the doctors at Georgetown yesterday they have told me that treatment and rest is the best course of action right now. Hopefully my back (will) heal and I'm ready to go following this two-week period.
"My goal is to help this team win a championship and I've said that from the first day I arrived here in Detroit. I'm going to do what ever it takes to help us achieve our goals as a team regardless if I'm starting or coming off the bench."
