Early life

College career

Pargo played four seasons of college basketball for Gonzaga University's Gonzaga Bulldogs. In 2008 in his junior season, he was voted the WCC Player of the Year. The following year, he was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine for the 2009 March Madness issue.

During his collegiate career, Pargo averaged 9.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game. The Bulldogs were very successful during Pargo's time at the school, qualifying for the 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 NCAA tournaments.

In his first professional year, Pargo played for Hapoel Gilboa Galil Elyon of the Israeli Basketball Super League, averaging 14.1 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 2.7 turnovers per game.
