I don't think Parker is a realistic option
Before you start critiquing this, please note that I do want Jabari Parker aka the best SF since LBJ. It would be amazing if he put on a Duke jersey for a year (and let's not kid ourselves - he is only staying for one year at whatever school he goes to), but I really don't think he's going to. Why? Our 3 is so stacked right now and Parker - being the best 3 out there - will play the 3 at whatever school he goes to.
In 2013-2014, he are the players who can play the 3 (and may do so):
Most Comfortable as a 3:
-Rodney Hood
-Alex Murphy
Have Played the 3 at Duke:
-Andre Dawkins
Speculated to some 3 at Duke:
-Rasheed Sulaimon
-Amile Jefferson
Based on historical comparisons, may play 3 at Duke:
-Matt Jones
That is 6 players who can possibly play the 3, 2 of which are most comfortable at the 3. Because of Hood and Murphy, I don't think Rasheed or Amile will touch the 3 at all (Rasheed will be primarily a 1 or 2 and Amile primarily a 4) and Dawkins and Jones may have a few minutes at the 3 but the majority at the 2.
If Parker comes to Duke, he'll probably get 20-25 minutes at the 3 and 5-10 minutes as the 4. However, what happens to all of our other players? Plus, with such a log-jam, I highly doubt that Parker gets those minutes.
If you were Parker, would this be an ideal situation? I know that you can play for a Hall of Fame coach, play in the greatest arena in college ball, and be surrounded by amazing Gothic and Georgian architecture, but the log-jam isn't an ideal situation, even for a player who will get minutes regardless of where we goes.
Personally, I would go after a big like Julius Randle or Austin Nichols, where were is more of a need.
