NBA Free Agency: Jabari Parker the high-risk, high-reward wing

Depending on what prism through which you view the NBA, you could see quite a variety of different players when you look at Jabari Parker. On one hand, he’s had a tumultuous start to his career, already enduring two ACL tears and countless minor injuries all of which sapping his athleticism at least to some degree.

On the other, he could be the next great scoring wing in the NBA, capable of scoring from every level and using his smooth athleticism to get anywhere on the court. Here’s what NBA teams are seeing:

  • Height: 6’8″
  • Position: PF
  • Age: 23
  • Years of experience in NBA: 4
  • Type of Free Agent (ie: restricted or unrestricted): Restricted
  • Hometown: Chicago, IL
  • Salary the previous season: $6,782,392 (Spotrac)
