As talented as Jabari Parker is, and as long as he's been considered a top prep recruit, it's no wonder the soon-to-be Duke Blue Devil is considered to be a likely one-and-done candidate. In fact, earlier this month Recruiting Nation's Paul Biancardi listed Parker No. 4 on his list of players most likely to be a one-and-done. On top of that, the 6-foot-8 small forward is currently No. 4 on Chad Ford's 2014 Big Board.

However, some feel that Parker could remain in Durham for more than one season.

Parker's lack of top-level athleticism is one potential area of concern as far as his NBA future goes, and he'll have to prove himself in that regard while in college. Bill Simmons brought up another interesting point on Parker in a BS Report episode with Ford last week.

"I think my thing with Parker is that he's not going to come out after his freshman year," Simmons said. "I think he, out of all these guys, is the guy I could see staying for at least two, and if anything it may be the rare case where it actually might be a smart business move because he'd go from like the fourth or fifth pick to the clear No. 1 pick a year from now. I would say, just gut feeling, that I'd be more surprised if he left than if he stayed."

Here's our own Fran Fraschilla with more on what Parker's NBA prospects.

How Parker projects to the NBA

"Parker is not seen as being as athletic as Wiggins, Aaron Gordon or Julius Randle, but at 6-9, he has a complete NBA small forward's skill set and enough athleticism to hold his own on a nightly basis in the league, in my opinion. Parker is an excellent shooter, both off the catch and off the dribble. In addition, his perimeter footwork is excellent and he has mastered the step-back move to create separation for his jump shot. He has deceiving first-step quickness that will allow him to get to the basket in isolation situations. In addition, Parker can handle the ball well, especially in the open court, and makes good decisions with the ball. He passes the ball well and his ball-moving ability will be a strength on an NBA team that values team play and chemistry. In that regard, Parker has a chance to be a very good 'blend player.' I do believe that his average foot speed at his position in the NBA will be a negative factor for him defensively, but he would not be alone in that area in the league. Good team defense and coaching can protect him that regard. It would not surprise me if Parker, who most assume will declare for the NBA draft, is the one player at the top of the 2013 recruiting class who pulls a Marcus Smart and decides to stay two seasons at Duke. I don't think that decision would affect his status as a top-five selection in either draft. In fact, it would add to his uncommon maturity and further increase the odds of him being a successful NBA player."
