This is a great read (https://www.theplayerstribune.com/jabari-parker-milwaukee-bucks-playoffs/), written by Jabari for The Players' Tribune.
Money quote:
"But as tough as the injury itself was … where it really has hurt? It’s not where some people think. It’s not for what it means for my future: I’ve been through this before, and I came back better. And I know the player that I’ll be when I’m back on the court again. That doesn’t scare me. But the fact that I can’t be out there with my team, right now, during these playoffs — to finish what we started? Knowing the team that we’ve been growing into together … and not being able to see that through with them?
"That’s what has hurt the most.."
He also has high praise for the city of Milwaukee.
I hope he is able to come back better than ever next season, and have a long, healthy, productive career as a Buck.
