Former NBA big man Kendrick Perkins is a rising media star, as he has launched a television career as a basketball analyst for ESPN. Perkins is all over the ESPN family of networks these days, as he appears on multiple programs that cover the league at large.
Unfortunately for Perkins, some analysis he’s given as part of his new job has damaged some relationships that he’s had with former teammates.
The notable relationship that he’s been working on repairing recently is his friendship with Lakers guard Russell Westbrook. Perkins spoke with The Marchand and Ourand Sports Media Podcast to explain the situation.
