Parra finished the game scoring 14 points without missing a field goal, grabbing 5 rebounds, and dishing 3 assists.

"I'm happy at la Penya, I've been here since I was 5 years old, and I'm only thinking about the Playoffs", Parra said in the post-game flash interview at Movistar.

With a smile on his face, Parra answered the question about how he is affected by all the rumors regarding his future.

The youngster, who was the most valued in the Penya's victory with 21 PIR, is only focused on the present.

"I have told my family and agents that I don't want to know anything. We will see what the future holds," Parra added.
