MDBullsfan89 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Wow, Perk definitely making a case for himself with that effort. Seems they're figuring out that he can shoot the 3 too. Last game you could tell he was wanting the 3 from the top of the key coming off ball screens and they weren't looking for him. 2-4 today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xDerekRx Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Loved that third game from Perk. A bit hesitant in the first two but really shined in that stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeseph Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Little rough for Perk so far tonight. Had some good plays as well. Just came back in the floor in 2Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admin Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Lebron is at the game. I think if he impresses Lebron, he makes the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as Nick has been, Devontae Cacok has been really good thus far and probably has the better chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UB92 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Perkins playing again tonight. It seems he is starting every game and gets minutes. He scored and good # of rebounds. Don't look at his +/- though. I suspect that he will be part of the Lakers G-League team this year to see if he develops. It would be a good spot for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
121Merrimac Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Probably shouldn’t look at how many fouls he gives either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDBullsfan89 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Cacok has definitely impressed, but regardless I'd say Perk has shown enough to get interest from any number of teams for a G-League spot at worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullBoy Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I don't think it can be understated that by starting Perk has to battle the top big man on every opposing team, which at times have included current NBA players. While Cacok has looked good, he is able to do it against back ups in each of the first five games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TML1000 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Very solid night from Perk and great efficiency on the offensive end. The fouls in summer league are usually tightly called, especially on big men, as the officials are working things out as well. Perkins' NBA role would be one of bench scoring and effort and a player who will use his fouls in the minutes he sees. For what his role will be, I feel like he has made a good account of himself thus far. A guy like Cacock is always going to "look" better in the eyes of most due to his style and skill set. Cacock is a leaper, finisher, rim protector...Perk is none of those at the NBA level but can score in a much wider variety of ways...two totally different roles. I don't think anyone can predict what the Lakers will do or are really looking for from this summer league roster but Perkins at least has a shot at a 2-way contract, either with LAL or another team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UBminicre Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Agreed Perk should have a home. I can see him being a 10 min bench guy on a nba roster in the coming years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admin Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Really happy for Perkins. Remember, he was the one player who stuck with us when Hurley left. So glad he’s being rewarded. It doesn’t matter if you go to a smaller program. It doesn’t matter if you are coming off the bench. Put in your work, improve your game and you will be rewarded.

trueblue32 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) Lakers signed two summer league big men not named Nick Perkins Edited July 10, 2019 by trueblue32 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDBullsfan89 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I still like his chances at a 2 way contract even if not with the Lakers. Commentator on ESPN2 just called him "the Zion Williamson of the MAC" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDBullsfan89 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Well getting ejected doesn't help. Though ya can't really blame him for throwing that guy's nasty headband like that 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 They just talked about Perk and the headband ejection on The Jump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
