Nebraska’s pesky, defense-first guard with a forever-green motor
In the 2015-16 season, Parker was a senior captain who embodied Nebraska’s grit: he finished his career in the program’s top 10 for games played (130) and steals (137), and in the 2016 Big Ten Tournament he averaged 5.3 points, 2.7 steals and 2.0 assists per game[1][9]. He wasn’t a volume scorer, but his calling card was disruptive defense, toughness, and a steadying presence—exactly the kind of point guard who makes opponents miserable and coaches sleep better.
