WATCH: The Trailer For 'Iverson' Released

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - One of the city's most iconic athletes, Allen Iverson, will be featured in the upcoming documentary, "Iverson," which chronicles the life of one of the NBA's best players.

The movie will debut at the Tribeca Film Festival on Sunday, April 27th. The documentary will tell the story of Iverson's high school years, his professional career and more.
