Jabari Parker Lists 10 Schools, Targets November Decision

Jul 12, 2012 10:27 AM

Jabari Parker has released a list of ten colleges he is considering with a year to go before he graduates from high school.

The list, in no particular order, includes Kentucky, Stanford, Michigan State, Kansas, Florida, Duke, BYU, Georgetown, DePaul and North Carolina.

''I want to make my decision in November if that's possible,'' Parker said. ''I just need to cut it down so I'll be able to go on visits and make my decision from there.''

Parker said geography would play a role in his eventual choice.

''I don't want my family waking up at 12 o'clock in the morning just to watch my games,'' he said, ''but then again I have to do what's best for me. I have to go with which program fits me the best and what system and style of play is going to allow me to expand my game out in the pros.''
