About Tom Perkins
Throughout the last thirty years, Tom Perkins has worked as an independent scout for many NBA, NCAA, & European League teams. During this time his scouting service, Basketball Analysis, has done evaluations on players and teams. Among the many players Tom has evaluated are Kobe Bryant, Grant Hill, Shaquille O'Neal and Michael Jordan. Most recently Tom wrote an article on a young player from Slovenia in 2016 who was 16 ½ years old. Tom said that he would be the BEST player in the draft when he is eligible for the draft in 2018. Fortunately Tom was correct and Luka Doncic was clearly the Best of his class and has gone on to win Rookie of the year and played on several All-Star teams. To date, Luka is his top find and my article in 2016 generally gives me credit for discovering him at such an early age. Early in his career he learned from the best having scouted for Bill Bertka and his Bertka Views Scouting Service.
From 1999 to 2003 Tom's primary company Pro Sports Enterprises has been instrumental in developing an interactive website, ACSPORTS.COM. He has been responsible for bringing major sports personalities and teams to the site as either an endorser or as part of a video game through his licensing with game developers and publishers. In 2002, Tom negotiated with AGASSI ENTERPRISES and Andre Agassi in developing an interactive video game.
From 1980 to 1992, Tom owned and operated a fitness training company. Starting with just one facility in one state, Tom expanded this business to seven facilities in two states. After eleven successful years, Tom sold his company in the early 90's. Prior to the NBA, Tom coached college basketball for University of South Carolina-Aiken, Augusta State University, and Western Wyoming College. He received his BA in Exercise Physiology at the University of South Carolina, and achieved his Master's Degree in Psychology at Augusta State University.
Tom provides connections to major sports leagues, teams, agents, athletes and other organizations. Tom has an unparalleled ability to establish relationships with potential business partners, particularly those in the sports world.
