Sam is a player we noticed this summer playing with the second West Central United team and when we saw him in St. Cloud, he was just getting back on the court from a long injury. In our recent previews we have been talking a lot about Perham but I don’t think we highlighted enough the impact that Sam can make.

Sam was the slam dunk champion as his 6’4 frame has strength and a ton of explosion. He was able to throw down the JR Rider East Bay Funk Dunk among the many dunks he finished at a higher completion rate than others. And on the court, we think Dale is going to really help Perham win games.

Sam Dale Sam Dale 6'5" | C/PF Perham | 2027 MN is a six-foot-five-inch 2027 forward from Perham who made quite an impression this spring and summer playing with West Central United . A weekend ago he played with Hoops North All-Stars at the East Metro Hurricanes event Dale showcased on the rim finishing with a number of dunks and a better shooting stroke hitting a few 3-pointers. Dale’s size, physically and athleticism could make him a serious problem for Perham opponents as long as he stays healthy.
