Jabari Time

A huge concern fans had about Jabari Parker was that he wouldn’t be able to contribute much besides bulk scoring. That’s a topic of conversation floating around Andrew Wiggins right now, and it’s not fun.

If you’re still saying that in 2016-17, you’re not watching Jabari very closely. He draws tough defensive assignments all the time, and on Friday he dipped his toes into rim protection. It turned out well:

Jabari also got two steals, one of which he instantly turned into some sweet, sweet fast break offense.

The finish on that play is so gorgeous. Just because we’re rolling sharing amazing Jabari Vines, here’s him gifting Giannis with a Kobe assist on a nice put-back dunk.

Jabari is really freaking good. The Bucks can be really freaking good, too. Once Middleton comes back, things will get really exciting in Milwaukee.
