Jabari Parker plans to “set up an appointment” with Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski when he returns to Durham, N.C., on Tuesday and he will decide Wednesday whether to declare for the NBA Draft or return to college for his sophomore year.
The Associated Press reported the news Monday. The 6-foot-8 Parker is currently in Oklahoma City to accept the Wayman Tisdale Award as college basketball’s top freshman.
Parker told the AP he will meet with Coach K to “lay out my options, but I’m just really glad I get the best of both worlds.”
The No. 3 overall prospect by DraftExpress, Parker is expected to be a top-3 pick if he does decide to enter the Draft.
Underclassmen have until April 27 to decide their plans. The Draft is set for June 26 in New York.
