NBA ROLE: (VETERAN) SCORING POINT

 

Tony Parker, THE best Frenchman of all time, is still going (semi) strong in the league; the engine of Gregg Popovich’s offense for over a decade, TP's taken a step back in recent years, is now a valuable backup PG/mentor in Charlotte – pure definition of a "seasoned vet who’s been through it all"; picks spots very well: Parker still provides savvy shot & playmaking, albeit in smaller doses; sig moves: legendary floater, spin layups & probing jumpers (inventive midrange attack); liability on D at this point; Parker’s leadership will be counted upon as CHA seeks a return to the postseason in 2019; 4x champ, future Hall of Famer – (somehow) one of the most underrated lead guards the game has seen?
