OKC Thunder draft picks over the last 11 years: Where are they now?
By Aidan E
Perry Jones: Big3
Perry Jones was the 28th overall pick in the 2012 NBA draft and endured a brief NBA career. Jones appeared in 143 games across three seasons with OKC before being out of the NBA completely after the 2014-2015 season. Jones didn’t have many standout moments with the Thunder, but fans will always remember his career night vs the Los Angeles Clippers in 2014.
In only the second game of the season, the Thunder traveled to play the lob city Clippers and started the game with a lineup consisting of Russell Westbrook, Serge Ibaka, Steven Adams, Perry Jones, and Andre Roberson (Adams and Roberson were in their second years).
Westbrook left the game after only playing for 8 minutes and the rest of the game was Perry Jones vs the world. Jones looked like Kevin Durant for a night and used his length and athleticism to slice the Clippers up for 32 points in route to a close loss versus a vastly superior team. Jones currently plays for the Enemies in the BIG3 league.
