Perry and his cousin, Kenneth Johnson, were detained in September 1985, when they flew from Amsterdam to New York. Johnson was arrested when customs officials found that the portable stereo he was carrying contained 3.5 pounds (1.6 kg) of 89 percent pure heroin, with an estimated street value of $1.8 million. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration spent the next several months accumulating evidence against Perry, who they suspected was involved with the drug smuggling. In January 1986, a warrant was issued for his arrest. After nine months of fighting extradition, Perry returned to New York for trial.

In December 1982, Perry missed a game against Real Madrid. The team told reporters that he was sick with the flu, but in fact a worsening drug problem had kept him from the game. In March 1983, Perry was arrested and charged with buying heroin; he pleaded guilty and was given a fine of $150,000 and a suspended sentence.

After the 1977–78 season, Perry converted to Judaism. He adopted the Hebrew name Elisha ben Avraham (אלישע בן אברהם ). Shortly thereafter, Perry became an Israeli citizen.

During the summer of 1976, Perry was spotted by a scout for Maccabi Tel Aviv, while playing at the Rucker courts in Harlem. Maccabi Tel Aviv signed Perry for US$6,000 a month, a small sum by American standards, but at the time, one of the highest salaries in the Israeli Super League, in which Maccabi Tel Aviv competed. The other players on the team responded to his leadership and the team had what Sports Illustrated writer Alexander Wolff described as "the most extraordinary season in its remarkable history" and what Perry called "the best nine months of [his] life". In 1977, Perry helped to lead the team to its first FIBA European Champions Cup (EuroLeague) championship, a prize they took again four years later. Perry played a total of nine seasons with Maccabi Tel Aviv, during which the team won eight Israeli Cups and nine Israeli League championships.

Perry was signed to the Virginia Squires of the American Basketball Association (ABA) in 1974. Perry was cut from the team during the 1974–75 season, however, and spent the balance of the season with the Allentown Jets, of the Eastern Professional Basketball League (the predecessor to the Continental Basketball Association (CBA)). The following season, he was signed by the New York Knicks, but he never played for the team. After being released by the Knicks, Perry returned to the Jets.
