Jabari Parker hosts impromptu basketball game in Milwaukee

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- It's not something you see every day, a member of the Milwaukee Bucks shooting some hoops on a court in a park.

Jabari Parker got the word out on Instagram posting an address and saying that more lights were needed.

Eventually, CBS 58 News was able to catch up with him on a court on Logan Street.

He says he picked the location for one reason.

"My whole neighborhood is St. Francis which I lived in for three years so its pretty much home to me and no better place to me than right off the highway and right by the lake," said Jabari Parker, Milwaukee Bucks.

We asked Jabari if more surprises like this might happen in the near future and he says 'never say never.'

Love seeing stuff like this! @JabariParker surprises some local @Bucks fans with a game of pickup. Jabari has always been incredibly active in the Milwaukee community.
