Smush Parker had a solid NBA career in the 2000s, and, like most former players, he wants to get back into the game. However, he is trying to return to the NBA in a very unorthodox away.
On Instagram, Parker announced that he is trying to learn to become a referee. In the post, Parker acknowledged only three former players successfully worked to become NBA referees, but he wants to be the fourth.
Parker looks to join Bernie Fryer, Leon Wood and Haywoode Workman as the only referees in NBA history who at one point played in the league.
