Perk Grabs 6 Rebounds in 11 Minutes but Dislocates Finger

Perk was aggressive in going to the boards in the Thunder's first preseason game, but he dislocated his finger in the first half and didn't return in the second half. Perk is tough. A little dislocated finger won't stop him, but the Turkish player who witnessed it might not be the same.


Oh, and, after a slow start, the Thunder won the game 95-82. Next game will be on Tuedsay at 3:00 PM ET vs the Philadelphia 76ers. Hopefully Perk will be good to go by that time.
