FC Barcelona and former NBA forward Jabari Parker just finished his first professional season overseas.

Barcelona lost the Spanish League semifinal against Real Madrid 0-3, and Parker was asked about his thoughts on his first season in Spain.

However, the 29-year-old couldn’t say a word about it as he got emotional and couldn’t hold back his tears. After a few follow-up questions, Parker still didn’t say anything, and the reporter gave him a moment to compose his thoughts alone.

In his debut EuroLeague season, Parker averaged 10.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 9.6 PIR per game in 38 appearances.

Meanwhile, in the Spanish ACB League, his stat line was 12.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 11.3 EFF per game in 38 matches.

In April, Jabari Parker signed a 2-year contract extension with Barcelona.
