“Travis’s basketball IQ is off the charts. He not only scores the basketball at an extremely high rate, but he is every bit as good of a passer as he is a scorer. That allows him to make his teammates and team that much better.”

The 6-foot-2, 175-pound junior guard had led the Lyons to a 30-5 record and a berth in the state tournament at the time of his selection. Perry averaged 32.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 4.7 steals per game through 35 games. He entered the state tournament with 4,317 points in his prep basketball career, 21 points shy of breaking the state’s career scoring record of 4,337 points—a mark that has stood since 1956.
