Allen Iverson's financial struggles during his post-NBA career have been well-documented. There have been times where Iverson was considered broke and was struggling to regain control of his life. Things weren't getting much better for Iverson as just a few years ago, he was hit with a tax bill of over $600,000. The IRS was accusing him of owing them that much money in back taxes and they finally came knocking after not getting their money.
According to Yahoo Sports!, it seems as though this whole saga has been resolved as the IRS has released their claims against him. Essentially, Iverson has dropped the $600,000 necessary to make this whole thing go away and now, he is free from his tax burdens.
