The loyal tenters out in K-ville can see the light at the end of the tunnel, with less than a week to go before Duke welcomes North Carolina to Cameron Indoor Stadium for the regular season finale. To show his appreciation for the fans who have been spending their days and nights out in the cold, freshman Jabari Parker took his talents to the kitchen, baking up some Jabari Bars for K-ville nation.
Parker wouldn't divulge his secret recipe, doing what any good chef would do, but from the video we know that Jabari Bars include butter, coconut, walnuts and chocolate among other ingredients.
In case anyone was wondering whether Parker's skill in the kitchen compares to his talents on the basketball court, they don't. When asked by a tenter if he was a good cook, Parker responded, "No, I can just bake this one thing and that's it."
This one recipe may be enough though, as Parker may not have time at Duke to perfect another recipe.
"If these hit the market, and if I get famous off this, then I'm afraid I'll have to leave college early... to be a professional dessert maker," Parker said.
Of course, Parker would not the first Blue Devil to partake in professional dessert-making. Who can forget former Duke center Brian Zoubek's venture Dream Puffz in Haddonfield, N.J.?
Duke fans are already dreaming of a Parker-Zoubek dessert chain coming to a location near you.
