Kendrick Le'Dale Perkins, born on November 10, 1984, in Nederland, Texas, has had a remarkable career both on and off the basketball court. A former professional basketball player, Perkins entered the NBA directly out of high school and played for several teams, including the Boston Celtics, Oklahoma City Thunder, Cleveland Cavaliers, and New Orleans Pelicans. He won the NBA Championship in 2008 with the Celtics.
