Buffalo’s rugged, high-volume frontcourt engine
In the 2018–19 season, Nick Perkins was Buffalo’s do-everything big, averaging 16.2 points and 6.0 rebounds per game while leading the Bulls in MAC scoring at 18.2 points per game; ESPN’s season log also shows he posted 14.7 points and 7.4 rebounds in 2018–19. Perkins’ calling card was physicality: he played through contact, punished defenses inside, and could stretch the floor enough to keep the lane honest, while Buffalo notes he was a two-time MAC East Player of the Week and scored in double figures 31 times that season. If your team wants a tough, proven, low-drama frontcourt scorer with real production and a nose for big conference games, he fits the bill.
