May 9th News Recently, former NBA player Perkins talked about Adams on the "RoadTrippin '".

Perkins said: "It's because of that guy that the Thunder traded me, and the Thunder chose him in the draft, and I was the starting center. On the first day of training camp, I could feel the atmosphere of the team, you know the team would give him playing time.

"He tried to hook in front of me, he was young, but he was dyingly strong. I'm the kind of defender who can accept an opponent hitting my chest, but when he hit me, I can only start talking trash and having psychological warfare. ”
