In fact he’s puzzled by the statements by the DR team president that he was apparently going to play for. According to Iverson’s agent he’s still working out hard to stay in shape hoping to get a call from an NBA team looking to make a playoff push.
The manager for Allen Iverson says the former NBA star will not play for a team in the Dominican Republic.

Earlier Thursday, Pueblo Nuevo team president Milton Nunez told The Associated Press the 36-year-old guard would play for his team.
Moore says Iverson is “shocked” by Nunez’s announcement.
Moore says Iverson is still working out, “waiting for another opportunity.”
