No. 1 recruit Jabari Parker ‘doing well’ in recovery
Posted Aug 19, 2012
Jabari Parker, the No. 1 recruit in the Class of 2013, is listening to his doctors and staying off his fractured foot. “It’s doing well,” his father, Sonny Parker, told SportsNet New York on Saturday. “He’s staying off of it, which is good. He has the boot. The doctor said stay off of it. He’s not putting any pressure on it.” Parker, a 6-8 power forward from Chicago, played through the injury in leading Team USA to victory in the Under-17 World Championship last month in Lithuania.
