Recently saw some twitter activity comparing Jabari Parker to Grant Hill, and I have to admit it is the best comparison I have heard in some time.
Jabari Parker will b the next grant hill anyway. It will b like he never left

Parker will become a Duke Blue Devil next year; he and Andrew Wiggins will put some life back into college basketball after a few pretty lackluster seasons in a row. At least talent wise. Also saw the tweet below and it made me wonder what Hill’s post playing career entails.
Grant hill gonna become an assistant at duke and every Jabari Parker like player will be a lock for them

@realgranthill33 TOP teammate, player & PERSON. Amazing comeback from injuries but few played at the level he played at prior to injuries.

He’s an intelligent and hardworking guy who has an impeccable reputation around the league. He has won various sportsmanship and community service awards throughout the years and anyone whether it be a coaching staff or a broadcast team would be lucky to have him.
It will be fascinating to watch Parker’s career at Duke, almost as fascinating as seeing what Hill will do with his post playing career.
