Anthony Parker is a 1993 graduate of Naperville Central High School, and the older brother of women's basketball legend Candace Parker.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Anthony Parker was promoted to general manager of the Orlando Magic on Wednesday, part of a restructuring of the team's basketball operations staff.
He left the NBA after the 1999-2000 season and became a two-time EuroLeague MVP while playing for Maccabi Tel Aviv. He returned to the NBA with Toronto in 2006 after a six-year absence. Parker has been Orlando's assistant general manager for the last two seasons, following a four-year stint as general manager of the Lakeland Magic -- the team's G League affiliate. Before taking over Lakeland, Parker spent 2012 through 2017 as a Magic scout.
