Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum loved watching former Duke Blue Devil Jabari Parker growing up.

(via Duke Blue Planet):

“When I was in high school when I was watching Duke and up-close: Jabari from a player standpoint is the reason, the prototype of why I came to Duke. I was a big fan of his in high school. I watched closely what college he chose. I watched him closely his freshman year. Just a 6′8, 6′9 wing that could do a little bit of everything. I tell people all the time like, ‘Jabari is a big, big reason why I went to Duke.’”
