Jabari Parker was tipped to go No. 1 to the Cavs for the big reason being that he can help a team, almost any team, to win now.
The most NBA-ready of any player the draft because Parker has the body shape and size, the shooting touch and the nose for the ball on defence to be able to make plays all over the court.
On face value, Parker looks like the love-child of Carmelo Anthony and Paul Pierce and while it is early to be making such grand comparisons, the Bucks will be hoping their latest star could at least go close to them.
His size is unique as well coming as a four in College, but he could also play small forward in smaller Bucks line-ups and rotations.
