Jabari Parker, recently released by Partizan Belgrade, is reportedly close to signing with Baskonia, a team in the EuroLeague and a rival of Maccabi Tel Aviv. Parker arrived at Partizan as the club's most expensive player but failed to meet expectations. Last season, he was loaned to Joventut Badalona, and upon his return to Serbia this season, he was not part of the team's plans.
According to reports from Spain, Parker is expected to sign with Baskonia soon, with advanced negotiations underway. Baskonia has had a very weak start to the season, winning only one of their eight games, placing them last in the standings.
Parker showed promising performance with Badalona last season, averaging 16 points and 5.8 rebounds in five Basketball Champions League games, and 12.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game in the regular season. This potential move would mark his third stint in Spain, following Barcelona and Badalona, and his third EuroLeague team.
