Bulls closing in on a deal with Bucks' free agent Jabari Parker
Milwaukee Bucks restricted free agent forward Jabari Parker and the Chicago Bulls are progressing on a deal, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.com.
No word on the amount of the deal being discussed, or if the Bucks will match, but the move is a curious one for Chicago. Parker has played his best ball at the power forward spot, which is currently anchored by second-year pro and potential franchise star Lauri Markkanen. Word is the Bulls plan to play Parker at small forward if a deal is completed. The oft-injured Parker is a native of Chicago.
Parker has played an average of just 45.8 games per year in his four NBA seasons, due to a pair of ACL injuries.
