ESPN’s Kendrick Perkins was recording a TV hit with SportsCenter on Tuesday, discussing Draymond Green’s decision to opt-out of his $27.6 million player option to enter free agency, when things took a bizarre turn.
During the discussion, Perkins spoke about the decisions that new general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. needed to make with the roster, and how those decisions could impact whether or not Green returned to the Warriors.
As Perkins began talking about the roster, he spoke about Jonathan Kuminga, the young up-and-coming wing for Golden State who seems to be improving quickly and becoming a key member of the rotation for the Warriors. Except when Perkins got into Kuminga’s improvement, it appears that he fell for a viral Twitter joke about the wing’s height that’s been circulating among NBA fans all over the internet.
