Parker, the number two overall pick of the 2014 NBA Draft, has not played since December of 2014, when he tore his ACL in a game against the Phoenix Suns.

Prior to the injury, Parker had been averaging 12.3 points per game as 19-year-old for a rising Bucks team. Parker was also an All-American in his one year playing basketball for Duke in college.

Bucks head coach Jason Kidd and the entire Bucks organization have to be thrilled to know their future All-Star in Parker is nearing a return to the court.
