Kendrick Perkins names the NBA player LeBron James and Stephen Curry could ‘pass the torch to’

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is taking the entire NBA by storm right now.

The Canadian superstar continues to live up to the billing as one of the current best players in the world. With his impeccable skill set, craftiness and leadership, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is charging the Oklahoma City Thunder even better to their historic campaign from last year.

By averaging a career-best 32.0 points on 53.0 percent shooting to go with 6.2 assists, 5.5 boards, and 2.1 assists, Gilgeous-Alexander has placed Oklahoma City atop the league once again with a Conference-best 36 wins.

Kendrick Perkins dropped a bold Shai Gilgeous-Alexander take

Gilgeous-Alexander’s compelling 2024-25 season was on full display as he dropped a career performance against the Utah Jazz.

In their 123-114 victory, it was Gilgeous-Alexander who was simply the man of the night on Wednesday. The 26-year-old netted a career-high 54 points and was an unstoppable force with solid efficiency of 17-of-35 field goals and 17-of-18 free throws. Despite being left unimpressed about his overall play, the entire Utah’s defense was only left helpless in containing the OKC sensation’s offensive burst.

In the wake of this elite performance, Kendrick Perkins dropped a bold take that simply crowns Gilgeous-Alexander as the next man up in basketball.

“When you talk about a guy, and we’ll talk about getting into the MVP conversation — and yes, [Gilgeous-Alexander is] my frontrunner,” Perkins exclaimed in ESPN’s NBA Today. “Let’s take it a step further. We’ve been wondering who LeBron James and Steph Curry gon’ pass the torch to, for as being the next face of the NBA, I think SGA wants to wear it right now.

“When you talk about checking all the boxes, he checks every single box for what you want, not only in a franchise player, but a guy that can actually be the face of the league.”

SGA is truly an ideal future face of the league

As LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant are approaching the last leg of being the faces of the league, it’s really intriguing how the NBA will finally identify the one who will inherit the baton. The likes of Victor Wembanyama and Edwards are certainly ideal for the brand of the game with how famous the have been already.

But in Perkins’s notion, the Association won’t truly make a mistake in handing their keys to Gilgeous-Alexander. The phenom guard has been a standout talent, and the way he fulfills his role as OKC’s reputable front man already offers a robust idea on how great and marketable he would be.

With how he’s been playing an MVP-caliber season while leading Oklahoma City as a title powerhouse, this year is basically up for grabs for Gilgeous-Alexander to finally present himself as the future face of this game.
