Jalen Williams throws shade at Kendrick Perkins over Thunder disrespect

The top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder are moving on to the second round of the NBA Playoffs as they pulled off a clean sweep of the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night. Before the series began however, former player and current ESPN analyst Kendrick Perkins had a hot take about the Pels, saying they'd have a serious shot at beating Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Co., even without Zion Williamson on the floor. It's quite interesting that Perk even doubted the Thunder in the first place. Sure, the Pels have some decent players outside of Zion, but they didn't perform—especially Brandon Ingram.
