Iverson ’96 is the Basketball HOFer's "new marijuana business venture with Viola, a 10-year-old company founded by" Harrington. Harrington is a "true cannabis evangelist." As for Iverson, there is "something about him that screams community and connection." So it is "clear why he and Harrington are collaborating."
