After much anticipation, Duke Blue Devils freshman Jabari Parker will make his decision as to whether or not he will return for his sophomore season or head off to the NBA as he will meet with Coach K on Tuesday, and then announce his final decision at some point on Wednesday.

While throughout the entire season it was assumed that Parker would be a one-and-done, it certainly hasn’t seemed that way since the season ended.

Right after the Blue Devils were stunned by Mercer in the NCAA Tournament, Parker was visibly shaken up and went on to call his Duke career, “incomplete.” That began the rumblings that he could be returning to Durham, along with the rumor that he had applied for sophomore housing on campus.

But now, whatever rumors are out there will soon be put to rest as we’ll find out if Parker will be headed for the lottery this June or getting set to team up with highly touted recruit Jahlil Okafor next season in the ACC.
