2. Milwaukee Bucks – Jabari Parker

With Wiggins off the board, and the Milwaukee Bucks reportedly already giving Parker a promise that they would draft him if he was available when the Bucks picked second, this is a pretty easy decision. Parker also told ESPN’s Andy Katz earlier on Wednesday morning that he believes he will be drafted by Milwaukee.

There was also a report that said Parker preferred the Bucks over the Cavaliers. It makes sense for him to say that considering that he is from Chicago, and Milwaukee is a short drive away from his family.

Parker also comes in and provides scoring that the Bucks desperately need. He will be a player that can turn around the Bucks franchise. Also, once drafted by the Bucks, he could attract free agents that will want to play with him. This pick could help Milwaukee in so many different ways. There is no other way that they can go here. If Jabari is available, there is a zero percent chance that they pass on him.
