Prior to ever taking to an NBA court with the Milwaukee Bucks, Jabari Parker was dubbed by Sports Illustrated as the best high school player since LeBron James.
Parker attended Duke university for one year under the tutelage of coach Mike Krzyzewski before declaring for the NBA draft. The Bucks then selected Parker with the second overall pick of the 2014 NBA draft and the excitement of Bucks fans began to rise.
In the time since, there has been plenty of cause for further optimism among Bucks fans, although to date Parker hasn’t always been at the center of what’s translated on the court.
