The Bucks had high hopes for Jabari Parker when they selected him with the No. 2 overall pick back in 2014, but injuries robbed him of much of his time in Milwaukee. Parker, who recently signed with the Hawks, wishes things had worked out differently.
“It’s real special, man, how they were able to build this building,” Parker told Eric Woodyard of ESPN. “I haven’t played here but just seeing like the growth of the city, I really like the way that it’s developing.”
“It’s just so sad that I’m not able to share it with them and that they moved on, but that’s fine, that’s business. But I do have like a little homesickness from being here. I just miss being here.”
Parker’s deal is for two seasons, though the second year is a player option. The forward wouldn’t rule out a return to Milwaukee.
“Never. I would never rule out a possible return here,” Parker added. “I would never do that. It’s just so sad how it ended and I wish I could’ve stayed.”
Pajamas maniac!!!!
The Atlanta Hawks are paying you millions, but you think it’s alright to publicly announce you miss the Milwaukee Bucks and would like to possibly go back? I bet the Hawks and their fans are thrilled with you right now! LOL! My gawd, Jabari is dumb.
Honesty is the best policy
He needs to learn defense first
What does he care about Atlanta? They’re the Cleveland Browns of the NBA. Everyone thought the Hawks were going to be contenders this year, and poor Vince Carter has wasted the final two years of his career playing there.
No one thought the Hawks would contend this year.
I mean with 2 of their better players out so far, its tough. Houston is honestly as bad as a city as cleveland haha
Dude, show your own team some respect and dial down that Bucks talk.
I’m pretty sure there Bucks would mind him coming back.
Wasnt he all snippity when Milwaukee essentially gave up on him?
Now for some reason he’s feeling nostalgic and loves everything about the town and team..yeah, I’m thinking the Bucks (fans included) would mind. I mean, he’s no Malcolm Brogdon…
Amen!
