STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • decent lower and upper body built – a bit mature beyond age
  • elite low post talent – can go either to the middle or to the baseline. Shares the ball perfectly from this area
  • acceptable mid range shooter also after simple pull ups. Improved in this category and shows promise of adding three pointer
  • good and patient passer with proper decision making
  • has tools to force his way to the basket with the ball
  • shows good anticipation for the rebounds
  • fine lateral mobility regarding he is really not above average athlete beside strength. Able to defend most of the guards
  • tends to hand check and gets too deep in rotation (unnecessary double teams) at times
  • average size for power forward position in professional basketball
  • finishing with right hand
  • face to the basket 1 on 1 game
OUTLOOK
Parra is a player with decent IQ who is already very experienced playing against older competition which may help him to survive and find a role for himself when he starts practising with pros. He needs to keep working on typical small forward skillset as he is likely to play more on this position in the future. He makes a great progress even though he is very mature physically which is very promising.
