Each and every time Phenom Hoops gets to report or sees a commitment from a player we have seen over the years, it is always a fantastic day. It is great to see players achieve their goal to play at the next level and it is such a great accomplishment for that player.
Here is the latest commitment.
Player: Antonio Perkins
Class: 2023
Committed to: Winston-Salem State
What Was Said by Phenom Hoops:
“Perkins is a useful initiator with the combination of poise, vision, and calm demeanor to reliably set up the action. However, he’s great working without the ball, spotting-up, and finding ways to make an impact as an off-ball cutter. Perkins is an excellent three-point shooter, but also consistently attacks closeouts and finishes or sets up others. He’s a versatile defender and steady rebounder with a high motor and willingness to make hustle plays whenever possible. Perkins’ skillset, leadership, and general approach have quietly been a massive part of their overall success as a group.”
“Perkins’ natural identity as a glue-guy allows him to find opportunities in every possible setting, and expand his production as needed. He’s a reliable shooter, defender, creator, and rebounder with the necessary IQ, size, and motor to outwork his assignment on a consistent basis. Perkins recently decided to transfer to Northside Christian and reclassify to the Class of 2023, which should only make him more enticing to college coaches.”
“Watching Perkins operate on the court, he has been able to add levels to his game, continuing to show his ability to stretch the floor with his jumper from outside but he is now showing his ability to put it on the deck, create for himself, and finish strong around the basket. You also have to take notice of his unselfishness, willingness to make the extra pass, and his impact on the boards, showing that he can be a strong presence in both. Perkins can’t just be labeled as a player that can stretch the floor, but he is showing that he can really impact the game in a variety of ways, has gotten stronger overall, can now be an effective scorer from multiple levels, and make his presence felt in a variety of other ways.”
“Not only did he produce in a steady, efficient manner across the board, but he consistently defended, made hustle plays, and operated within his role on both ends of the floor. Perkins’ natural identity as a glue-guy allows him to find opportunities in every possible setting, and expand his production as needed. He’s a reliable shooter, defender, creator, and rebounder with the necessary IQ, size, and motor to outwork his assignment on a consistent basis.”
