WATCH: Jabari Parker plays pickup with former CPS stars

Share

Jabari Parker was spotted getting a workout in against a slew of former CPS basketball standouts this past week. 


In the video, you can see Parker playing against former Morgan Park and DePaul standout Billy Garrett Jr., who is now with the Westchester Knicks of the G League and his former Simeon teammate Kendrick Nunn, who was second in the nation in scoring with Oakland University (in Auburn Hills) last year, and is now signed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Golden State Warriors. This video, along with Parker bringing some of his new teammates to his youth basketball camp, shows that he is clearly excited to hit the ground running in his first year with the Bulls. 


Parker will be entering the first year of a two-year deal, worth $40 million with a team option. He joins a young core of Lauri Markkanen, Kris Dunn, Wendell Carter Jr. and newly re-signed guard Zach LaVine. There is a lot of buzz surrounding this young group that expects to learn a lot about what they will play like as a team moving forward. 


The Bulls first preseason game will be September 30, against the New Orleans Pelicans at 7 p.m., right here on NBC Sports Chicago.
