Jabari Parker doesn’t have any qualms about playing for the Bucks
Jabari Parker will likely be one of the top three picks in the next draft
Jabari Parker doesn’t have any qualms about playing in Milwaukee for the Bucks.
So says two people who are quite close to him: his father Sonny and former Duke University teammate Rodney Hood.
“Jabari just wants to play ball; He won’t have any issues about playing in Milwaukee, not at all,’’ said Hood, a projected lottery pick himself. “And, if he went to Milwaukee, it would only be a short distance away from his home, which would be good. He’d be fine with that.’’
Sonny Parker, who resides in Chicago, also noted how Milwaukee’s close proximity to the Windy City was appealing for his son and the Parker family.
“Jabari just wants to play and do whatever it takes to help his team win. So, no, he wouldn’t mind playing in Milwaukee and that’s the truth.’’
Sonny Parker said he and Jabari are familiar with Milwaukee and the surrounding area. Sonny said his son played in several Amateur Athletic Union tournaments in Milwaukee and had attended some camps there as well.
“It would be nice if he went there (to Milwaukee),’’ Sonny said. “It’s a straight drive (on highway 94) to Milwaukee; I wouldn’t have to get on a plane.
“Milwaukee is a nice town. It’s not as big as Chicago, of course, but it’s similar to Chicago in that it’s on the lakefront. It’s a nice community.’’
