Jabari Parker, a player for Barcelona, is close to signing a new contract with the “Blaugrana,” as reported by the Spanish portal “Encenstando.”
The plan is for the American to stay for at least one more season in Catalonia. However, the new contract will include an NBA exit clause. It is stated that the former second overall pick in the NBA draft is inclined to stay. However, the only stumbling block has been precisely that NBA clause. Jabari Parker wants to keep the door open to the strongest league in the world, the NBA.
As a newcomer to the EuroLeague this season, he averaged 10.3 points and 3.9 rebounds in 33 appearances, while in the Liga Endesa, he played 28 games, averaging 11.5 points and 3.1 rebounds.
