Bucks rookie Jabari Parker took the opportunity at Panini’s trading card photo shoot to imagine himself as a pirate via Snapchat. While his drawing is crude, one can make out a pixelated yellow-and-blue parrot perched on his shoulder, and an extremely loose-fitting eye patch.
He did this himself! @JabariParker has a 2nd career as an artist. For more, check out our "NBA" snapchat #NBARooks pic.twitter.com/QCwaa9eMdd

What if 2nd overall pick of the 2014 NBA Draft had decided instead to become a real-life Pirate of the Pittsburgh variety?
