Jabari Parker plays 25 minutes off the bench

The Bulls elected to make Jabari Parker their sixth man as the preseason concluded. He is coming off the bench but still saw 25 minutes in the first game. He shot 43.8% from the field and was 1-for-4 from three-point range. He scored 15 points in the 127-108 loss to the 76ers. Parker added five rebounds, one assist, two turnovers and a steal to his stat sheet also.
Fantasy Impact:
Parker definitely holds some value in deeper fantasy leagues. Even though he is coming off the bench, he has excelled in the role. Playing against slightly lesser competition is ideal for the Chicago native who never achieved the super-star status many thought he would in this league. It will be interesting to see how he continues to mesh in the Bulls' system.
