Basically Kendrick's estranged father still lives in New Zealand and played in the NZNBL in the '80s and '90s - and that residency would therefore give Perkins the passage to get into international competition and not have to play as a naturalised player.

Sort of a scary prospect, but I doubt how legitimate this really is.
