Bucks rest Jabari Parker vs. Nuggets

The Milwaukee Bucks are playing it safe with the condition of 20-year-old sophomore Jabari Parker.

With the team on the second night of a back-to-back, the Bucks rested Parker against the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday.

Parker missed the team's first four games and is coming along slowly since tearing his ACL last December. The No. 2 selection of the 2014 draft is averaging six points and 3.8 rebounds in 20.5 minutes per game across four appearances this season.

Johnny O'Bryant drew the start in place of Parker.
