According to insider Shao Huaqian on June 21, both Gary and Perry, the foreign players of Zhejiang men’s basketball team, are unlikely to be retained. Gary is not cheap and his performance has declined rapidly in recent years; he now relies mostly on defense. Perry lacks height and offensive prowess. In Korea, Bass can be signed for only $375K, while Gary would cost 4-5 times that amount. In terms of last season’s performance, Gary’s decline was noticeable. Initially, he gained recognition for his all-around offensive skills and was seen as a signing that strengthened Zhejiang’s forward position. His injury during the 2022-23 championship finals was even considered a key factor in Zhejiang’s sweep. However, with the arrival of Jones, Gary’s tactical role and ball-handling diminished, leaving him mainly with defensive duties, as Shao humorously pointed out. Perry, playing mainly at the power forward position, showcased versatile offensive skills in the regular season but failed to dominate in the playoffs, which made it difficult for him to meet Zhejiang’s championship aspirations.
