Parker literally did it all in the 8am game Saturday vs Tj ford. He knocked down 2 3s and 2 middys. He was finding teammates with his court vision. He grabbed a rebound took it coast to coast and threw a lob to Jaylon Vines. Parker was also excellent around the rim whether he was taking his man off the dribble from the 3 pt line or positioning himself around the rim for easy buckets.

My first time seeing Parker Jefferson Parker Jefferson 6'9" | C Inglewood | 2025 State #46 Nation CA-S , and my first thought is I need his meal plan….. Such a long big body that just moves people out. Stretch out defense with his shot-making ability off the catch. Can heat up quick from the perimeter. Effective for pick-n-roll situations, but useful when fading as well. Makes it hard for defense because of different options he provide on offense in that scenario. Understand how to use his length to get by his defender with one step.
