Perry is highly regarded around the NBA. He has served under current Pistons GM, Joe Dumars since April of 2008. Despite Detroit's standing as a league bottom feeder, Perry has been tabbed as a future general manager in the NBA. He was once a finalist for the Seattle Supersonics vacancy that ultimately went to Sam Presti.
