Austin Parks Says Frontcourt Duo With Felix Okpara Will Be “Scary,” Doesn’t Expect Knee Injury To Keep Him Sidelined Long

Austin Parks was sidelined with injury while his St Marys Memorial teammates took part in Ohio State’s high school team camp on June 10. But that didn’t stop the 2023 Buckeye commit from getting something worthwhile out of the experience.

Parks, a 6-foot-10 center and the No. 102 player in the country, still received plenty of face time with his future coaching staff in Columbus. In fact, he might have gotten even more, given that his ailment freed Parks up to talk to Buckeye coaches he hadn’t yet met. Beyond that, the Ohio native got to hang around the Ohio State facilities once again and spend time with some of his future teammates – the current members of the scarlet and gray roster.
