Naomi Osaka brought her signature fashion statement to the US Open once again, but this time, her on-court entrance came with a special tribute to basketball legend Allen Iverson. The four-time Grand Slam champion made a striking appearance ahead of her first-round match against Anastasia Zakharova on Monday night at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
