Tony Perkins - College Basketball News & Rumors

13 points in Tourney loss Perkins posted 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-6 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 30 minutes during Friday's 95-81 loss to Florida.

Impact Perkins shot just 50 percent from the charity stripe, despite shooting 63 percent from the field. It was his second straight above-average scoring game, both coming in the SEC Tournament. So, while Missouri will now look towards the NCAA Tournament, Perkins played well in Nashville, and he'll look to carry that into March Madness.

13 points more than enough Perkins notched 13 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 101-71 victory over South Carolina.

Impact Perkins surpassed his scoring average by about five points against South Carolina, but it was more than enough as the Tigers notched a 30-point blowout victory over the worst team in the SEC. It was a good night for Perkins, who hadn't hit 13 or more points since Feb. 5 against Tennessee. The point guard remains ice-cold from deep in his last six games, however, shooting just 1-of-11 in that time frame.

Limited output in loss Perkins racked up eight points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 18 minutes during Saturday's 67-64 loss to Texas A&M.

Impact Perkins has seen his role decrease significantly this season since transferring from Iowa, and Saturday against the Aggies was another example. The guard only played 18 minutes and once again failed to hit double-digit points. Perkins will remain a critical starter for Missouri moving forward, but at least statistically, he's not as important as he once was.

Ends up playing vs. Vandy Perkins (undisclosed) registered five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) in 12 minutes during Saturday's 75-66 win over Vanderbilt.

Impact Perkins played in just 12 minutes against the Commodores, but he did end up starting and logging five points. Although he was on a lower time-share, the senior guard should continue to ease back to being a full-time producer for the Tigers in the coming games. His next chance to see more action will be this upcoming Tuesday at Florida.

Game-time call Perkins will be a game-time decision Saturday against Vanderbilt.

Impact Perkins' status remains unclear ahead of Saturday. The senior guard, who'd started seven straight games, is averaging 8.2 points in 23 minutes in his first season with Missouri.

JANUARY 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to play Saturday Perkins (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against Vanderbilt.

Impact Perkins could very well be a game-time decision for Saturday's afternoon tipoff due to his questionable tag. The senior guard has started in nine of his 13 contests in his first year with the program, averaging 8.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.4 steals per game. If he doesn't suit up Saturday, expect Caleb Grill to embrace a bigger role on offense.

Matches season-high Perkins supplied 18 points (5-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-9 FT), six rebounds, three assists and three steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 80-77 loss to Illinois.

Impact Perkins' 18 points tied a season high for the guard. He also pulled down a season high six rebounds, as well as a 2024-2025 best three steals. His 37 minutes were easily the most he's played this season, and after four consecutive starts, the guard appears to be hitting his stride.

First start since return Perkins amassed eight points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 30 minutes during Sunday's 76-67 victory over Kansas.

Impact Perkins missed a pair of games in mid-November due to a leg injury but has appeared in Missouri's last four contests, and he drew his first start since Nov. 11 in Sunday's upset victory. He also matched a season-best minutes total, though it didn't result in a big fantasy day, with Tamar Bates (29 points) and Mark Mitchell (17 points) leading the way.

Out Thursday Perkins (leg) is out for Thursday's game versus Mississippi Valley State, Eli Hoff of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Perkins will be held out of Thursday's game, however it is considered a precautionary measure. He's dealing with a minor leg injury, one that should not keep him off the floor for long. Anthony Robinson is expected to start at point guard in his place. Perkins has over a week until the Tigers take the floor again, so there's a decent chance he will be back for that contest versus Pacific.

Not starting Monday Perkins (undisclosed) is not starting Monday's game at Memphis, Eli Hoff of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Perkins went through pre-game warmups but ultimately will not start the season opener due to his undisclosed injury. It's currently unclear if he will play limited minutes off the bench or if he will miss the opener altogether.

Warming up Monday Perkins (undisclosed) is warming up ahead of Monday's game at Memphis, Calum McAndrew of The Columbia Tribune reports.

Impact Perkins was spotted warming up with no apparent limitations, and while his availability for this matchup remains uncertain, this is certainly a step in the right direction. Having Perkins in the lineup would be a huge boost for Missouri since he's expected to be the engine that makes the offense go.

Practice following exhibition miss Perkins (undisclosed) returned to action after sitting out during last Saturday's exhibition game 90-45 win over Lincoln University, Calum McAndrew of the Columbia Tribune reports.

Impact Perkins is reportedly expected to suit up in Missouri's season opener against Memphis despite missing Saturday's exhibition game against the Blue Tigers. The 6-foot-4 senior transfer from Iowa, who averaged 14 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.6 steals across 34 starts with the Hawkeyes last season, is expected to be a large piece for the Tigers this season. If Perkins is ultimately unable to suit up for Missouri this Monday, NKU transfer Marques Warrick appears to be the next man up at point guard.

Enters transfer portal Perkins entered the NCAA's transfer portal Tuesday, VerbalCommits.com reports.

Impact Perkins began his collegiate career during the NCAA's 2020-21 season, which was affected by COVID-19. The NCAA gifted another year of collegiate eligibility to those who participated in that campaign. Fast forward around three years later, and Perkins will use that extra season of eligibility to finish his collegiate career on the highest note he can. With Perkins, interested teams get an all-around player who has proven to be of high quality in scoring, playmaking and defense in a top conference.
