The latest episode of our Win In 6 Podcast arrives as we look ahead to Jabari Parker’s free agency and the potential complicated, messy road ahead for him and the Milwaukee Bucks.

The latest episode of our Win In 6 Podcast arrives as the Milwaukee Bucks prepare for free agency, and in particular the free agency of their former second overall pick Jabari Parker.

Drafted to be the leading light of the next era of Bucks basketball back in 2014, things haven’t gone exactly to plan for Jabari Parker.

While injuries robbed him of precious development opportunities and playing time, other players have stepped up to usurp Parker’s importance to the Bucks’ future, make his long-term fit much less seamless, and generally take the center of the discussion away from the Chicago native.

All of that, combined with strange incidences of him voicing his disgruntlement in recent months, sets up what could be one of the stranger free agency situations in Bucks history, and even in recent NBA memory.

Do the Bucks offer Parker a big deal, will other teams present offers they need to match or could he end up signing the qualifying offer (if its even extended to him)?

We discuss all of that, and share our thoughts and opinions on what the Bucks should do and where we are on Jabari as a Buck at this point in time.

Lastly, we fielded listener questions on Parker, all of the other potential talking points for the Bucks in free agency, and much more.

Joining me for this episode (not the next episode) was Jordan Treske (and not the D-R-E or the D-O-double-G).
