Jabari Parker Scores 24 Points In Loss
6 years agoChicago Bulls small forward/power forward Jabari Parker tallied 24 points, eight rebounds and five assists in Wednesday's loss to the Bucks. He was 9-for-21 from the field 2-for-6 from beyond the arc and 4-for-7 from the free throw line. It was the fifth time in the last seven outings that he has scored at least 20 points as well as his fifth straight game of hauling in seven or more rebounds. The 23-year-old combo forward has shot the ball better in November and is having a strong five-game stretch, averaging 22.4 points along with 9.6 rebounds and four assists while shooting 50 percent from the floor and 31.8 percent from beyond the arc. Parker will look to extend his streak of multiple three-pointers to four straight games in a tough matchup against the Pistons on Friday. The Pistons, who are giving up the third fewest points to opposing team's frontcourts, have allowed just 51.0 points a contest over the last five games.
