Simeon star Jabari Parker, the No. 1 high school player in the country, will be featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated's May 21 issue.

Jeff Benedict's story details Parker's Mormon faith and also proclaims him to be 'the best high school basketball player since LeBron James'.

Parker also revealed that he might put the NBA on hold in order to complete a Mormon mission after he turns 19.

On Wednesday's edition of "The Dan Patrick Show", the crew revealed the cover and discussed the pressure on Parker as well as other high school phenoms.
