I get what you're saying but take into account that's an almost 5 year old article. And there are 'rumors' about his dads activities, not proven facts. I think the kid should be gauged on his own merit and not what his dad did or did not do. Now if his dad is acting as his agent and that creates issues, that's another thing. But if the kid has good character and won't make waves, then he should be judged on what he can bring to a team and not on dealings his dad may or may not have had.
