Jabari Parker, a basketball player for Barcelona, spoke after the seventh-round EuroLeague match in which his team won against Crvena Zvezda 86:81 on their home court.
Barcelona played the first half at their own pace, and it seemed like they would secure a routine victory. However, Crvena Zvezda made a comeback in the second half, had a few chances to take the lead, but they didn’t succeed. In a suspenseful finish, Barcelona secured their seventh win of the season.
Jabari Parker played his best game since joining Barcelona this summer. He scored 20 points and grabbed five rebounds.
“They are a good team, strong. We had a tough time winning this game. We controlled the match in the first half. They are a very good team. My teammates helped me have a good game. We are improving every day, and I am happy to be here,” said Parker.
