Bulls media turning on Jabari Parker after postgame form becomes as poor as his on-court play
Parker has been a tough watch on the court, and his conduct with the media isn’t doing him any favors.

"The Bulls’ decision to use their remaining $20 million of cap space on Jabari Parker drew many a raised eyebrow, but the short-term nature of the deal at least offered a way out if things went south.
Things have gone south thus far.
Parker didn’t help himself right off the bat with questionable comments about defense, and then he was promptly benched in preseason after playing terribly on both ends of the floor. The Bulls signed him to start at small forward, but now they don’t even want to play him there.
Parker has since returned to the starting lineup thanks to Bobby Portis’ injury and Lauri Markkanen’s continued absence, but things haven’t gone much better. While the 23-year-old has had his moments scoring the ball (14.3 PPG is second behind Zach LaVine and playmaking, he has been inconsistent at best and close to unplayable at worst. His 51.2 true shooting percentage is below average, his shot selection is questionable, and he routinely gets targeted on defense.
