Kendrick Perkins stated, “When it comes down to Anthony Marshon Davis Jr., that is LeBron James’ best running mate of his career. There’s no other player, in my opinion, that compliments him like Anthony Davis.”
Perkins praised the chemistry between LeBron and AD over the past five years and highlighted Davis as one of the most s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed power forwards in history. However, Stephen A. and Udonis Haslem visibly disagreed as they were seen shaking their heads during Perkins’ rant. In his typical fashion, Stephen A. went on to roast Perkins, and said this is easily Perkins’ worst possible take on his show.
