Bucks plan to be ‘very conservative’ with Jabari Parker next season

After landing free agent big man Greg Monroe over the summer to bolster a preposterously exciting young core, the Milwaukee Bucks have been generating a ton of buzz in NBA circles lately. But the team might be pumping the brakes on their own hype train before the season even begins.

In an interview with Michael Lee of the Washington Post that was published on Friday, Bucks general manager John Hammond revealed that the team plans to be “very conservative” with young forward Jabari Parker and his minutes next season.

“If we think he’s capable of playing 20, we’ll maybe play him 10 minutes,” said Hammond.
