Jermaine Dupri Claims Nelly Scammed Drunk Allen Iverson in H.O.R.S.E

In a wild twist of events, rap icon Nelly reportedly triumphed over NBA legend Allen Iverson in a game of H.O.R.S.E. at Jermaine Dupri’s residence, a story recounted during Dupri’s appearance on Carmelo Anthony’s ‘7PM in Brooklyn’ podcast. According to Dupri, an incident arose where Iverson's shots consistently hit the ceiling, hindering his performance. "Nelly was shooting like it was his personal gym,” Dupri noted, implying the setup favored the rapper. He humorously added that Iverson’s height disadvantage contributed to his loss. Carmelo Anthony weighed in, likening the situation to a rigged dice game, recognizing Nelly's competitive edge stemming from his athletic background. The rapport between Nelly and Iverson dates back to the early 2000s, reflecting a spirit of camaraderie intertwined with fierce competition. Even though Iverson once admitted to being outplayed while intoxicated, he later claimed victory when sober, showcasing the playful rivalry that defines their bond.
