Jabari Parker He just told the world that he had contracted the coronavirus, and less than 3 days later, the guy doesn’t seem to be isolated … he’s just playing tennis in public.
The Sacramento Kings star was spotted Saturday at Chicago’s Longfellow Park, where he was meeting a friend at the other end of the net … all smiles and no mask. Of course, he had just announced a few days before that he had tested positive for COVID-19.
It’s hard to say what we should do with these photos of him apparently well in light of that. On the one hand, it’s a bad look, but also, it could be perfectly understandable … since we don’t know the exact state of his recovery at the moment.
In his statement through the Kings, Jabari said he discovered his diagnosis “several days ago,” but did not specify when or how long he was quarantined in Chi-Town. You’d like to assume it’s at the end of your 14-day isolation here, but we just don’t know.

Another somewhat disturbing sign: sources tell us that Jabari was recently seen at a restaurant there in Windy City. Again, it is not clear if he is better now or if he is still sick.
In any case, we have contacted your representative for clarification, so far, we have received no news.
