Keith Eisenhuth held up his Allen Iverson fingerband, which he had just bought Wednesday to go with his gray and black Iverson basketball shoes, Iverson shirt, headband, wristband and jersey.
The 12-year-old Haverford, Pa., resident said he has no problem with the fact that Iverson is charged with four felonies and 10 misdemeanors stemming from an incident July 3 at the West Philadelphia apartment of his cousin. That night, Iverson, the Philadelphia 76ers star guard, allegedly went looking for his wife after a marital dispute and threatened two men in the apartment with a gun.
Eisenhuth’s father, Bill, said he doesn’t have a problem with it, either.
“Keith is into basketball because of Allen Iverson,” Bill Eisenhuth said. “He’s modeled things in his life after Allen Iverson. If he’s convicted, it wouldn’t affect anything, because I know people who have done what he’s done in the heat of passion. The action is less than the magnitude of what it’s become.”
