Perry is a grown man, and only going to get better. Something about him reminds me of Lawrence Roberts. When the game slows down for him and he starts to fully dictate what happens throughout the game, man is he going to be a leader.

Heck of a player!!

He's our no. 2 option right now offensively. If he can improve his perimeter shooting in the offseason, he will be even more difficult to guard.

Yea fans better get ready because he's going to test the draft waters after the season.

[Lord McBuckethead]

He probably will test the waters for the NBA. Hope he gets there cause that means our team will probably have gone deep in the tourney.

Hope he averages 25 pts a game from now until late March.

He would improve his stock by staying another year, but can?t blame him if he gets a high grade for draft. Hoping the Pelicans get him if he leaves. He will not replace AD talent wise, but will be a difficult matchup in the nba style of play.

Had Howland played him more minutes early in the year, we beat OM and USC early in conference. Probably beat Arizona state too.

Holman had 20 & 10 vs South Carolina. Ado had 12 & 5 & 3 blocks vs South Carolina. Perry was shook that 1st SEC road game. Playing him more wouldn't have won that game.

I don't doubt it, but I hope he's smart about it. He would benefit greatly from another year in college. He's not ready for the NBA. Of course, if you get a first round grade - which he could, based on potential alone - you don't even think twice about it. He's got a ton of upside for sure, and he'll get there one day soon.

He needs to work on shooting 3 pointers this summer and get good at that.
