PLAYER EVALUATION

Understanding his previous injury, the comeback and re injury of the same knee, Parsons production has actually been acceptable.

Before you call me crazy, hear me out: I didn’t say scoring – his scoring is streaky at best.

I mentioned this earlier, but he’s filling up multiple columns a night. Where his three-point prowess lacks of late, Parsons contributes in the rebounds, steals and assists columns – it’s just flying under the radar because ‘he’s not hitting shots‘. 

Toss in a handful of double digit scoring outings (he’s averaging less than 20 minutes, remember) and his injury-ridden season can be seen as borderline acceptable.

GRADE: C+

He’s certainly not producing at an appropriate Parsons-esque level, but he’s not failing.
