Juwan Parker

The Bulldogs missed Parker last year. After averaging 4.9 points as a freshman, he tore his achilles tendon in May of 2015 and he missed the entire 2015-16 season. He has appeared in every game so far this season and has been very productive.

So far he’s averaging 8 points and 7 rebounds per game, but he isn’t consistent. He’s only shooting .304 from the field. He’s taken 46 shots, which is the third most on the team, they’re just not falling.

But he’s so good at getting rebounds, he’ll certainly get close looks, he just needs to start taking advantage of those opportunities.
