Jabari Parker draws first start of season for Bucks on Friday in place of Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle)
Milwaukee Bucks forward Jabari Parker will start on Friday against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Giannis Antetokounmpo is out with a sprained ankle for an indefinite amount of time, so Parker could be looking at multiple starts for the Bucks. In the only game that he logged over 30 minutes this season, Parker scored 20 points with 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block on 9-of-15 shooting. Shabazz Muhammad could see an increased role off the bench with Jabari in the first unit.
numberFire's models project Parker to score 30.9 FanDuel points at a cost of $5,700 on Friday.
