While Sam Perkins’ NBA career wasn’t as decorated as Michael Jordan’s, he established himself as one of college basketball’s most prolific players, and was an NBA force to reckon with. Perkins was the No. 4 overall pick by the Dallas Mavericks in 1984 – picked one selection behind Jordan and one selection before Charles Barkley — and played 17 seasons.
