Jabari Parker doesn’t care if he loses his No. 1 ranking
Posted Jul 18, 2012
In addition to his devout Mormon faith, unusual humility and ability do dominate a game without scoring, elite class of 2013 recruit Jabari Parker has one other characteristic most of his peers don't share. He doesn't care about recruiting rankings. In an era when most top prospects pay close attention to how recruiting services evaluate them, Parker's parents say he measures success by scholarship offers, high marks in school and state championship trophies.
