My Take
Anthony Parker has the kind of career arc I deeply respect. Out of Naperville, Illinois and Bradley University, he reached the NBA, then went and dominated abroad, winning back-to-back EuroLeague MVP awards in Italy and Israel before returning to play in the league. Thriving overseas takes adaptability and nerve, not just talent, and he had all of it. What seals my admiration is the second act: he climbed into the front office and became general manager of the Orlando Magic. The same basketball intelligence that made him effective on the floor clearly translated upstairs. Players who grind out results everywhere tend to earn exactly this kind of lasting trust.
