Report: NBA Veteran Jabari Parker To Sign Overseas

The NBA has seen many talented players come and go, and unfortunately, injuries have derailed plenty of careers, and one of the biggest examples of that is veteran forward Jabari Parker, who was once the No. 2 overall pick in the NBA Draft.

The once promising prospect has unfortunately dealt with multiple ACL injuries since that point, and is yet to bounce back in the league, and after it was rumoured he was heading overseas, it's now been confirmed he will be signing with Barcelona.

Over his nine year career, Parker managed just 310 games, and in that time he averaged 14.1 PPG and 5.5 RPG, so when healthy he's clearly proven to be effective, and now at just 28-years old, he's heading overseas with the hope of making it back to the NBA one day.
