Jabari Walker is coming fresh of a sensational performance at the NBA Combine where he averaged 14 points and 7 rebounds in the spread of two games. He now has followed it up by another impressive showing at BDA Pro Day. Walker continues to turn heads and make a name for himself prior to the upcoming NBA Draft. Colorado fans can pretty much kiss any hopes left goodbye for him to return to Boulder.
Jabari has been chosen to make the second-round of the draft in many mock drafts, but the way he keeps playing day-by-day he is pushing himself up to possibly a first-round pick if he keeps this going. It surely helps to have great support by his NBA veteran father Samaki Walker. An NBA Champion who knows the ins and outs of the business on and off the court. Buff Nation has no doubt he is in the best hands and we can’t wait to see him follow in Samaki’s footsteps and create his own path in the NBA.
Now that he has gotten an agent and being highlighted in other agency pro days it’s safe to say Colorado is behind him, but never forgotten. He has said in the past playing for the Buffs was one of the best decisions of his life. We once again wish Walker the best on June 23rd and know any team longing for a scorer with a strong defensive presence will get a steal with Jabari in the NBA Draft.
Now we take a look around a the Twitter Universe to see what fans and others have to say about Jabari’s future.
