Ray Ray Parks, Jr. is The Natural

Ray Ray Parks, Jr. is the future
Is the reigning UAAP Most Valuable Player ready to make the jump to the Philippine Basketball Association?

This was the hot topic raised the other day following Parks' explosive 32-point outburst that propelled his National University squadback into Final Four contention over the revived De La Salle University program. Parks was making everything look easy, thus this writer's proposed moniker for him. Pretty sure that Quinito Henson or Mico Halili will definitely come up with something cheesier, but what the hell.

On offense, yes, Parks does appear to have that superstar game necessary to be relevant in the pros. He can definitely score from all angles and has nifty handles for his rare combination of size and speed. Defensively however, Parks still has a long way to go to even be considered as an elite basketball player.
