Quickness. Explosiveness. The 2025 wing prospect has all the physical tools that jump out when watching him. And it was more than just passing the eye test for the raw prospect, he was the most productive player for Next Level in the two games watched. Brown is impressive as a slasher, as when he does get downhill with a runway he would explode for impressive slams at the rim. His motor also ran hot as he corralled 8 rebounds a game to go along with his team high 14 points a contest.  After only playing a little varsity action as a sophomore, Brown has surged to the list of prospects to keep an eye on, as to go along with his production, he's a high ceiling prospect.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Cooper Bradley","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"77248","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Bishop McGuinness","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"Next Level 2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Bradley finished the high school season as a quality shooter for Bishop McGuinness. Now with the graduation of his older brother and a strong group of 2025 and 2026 prospects for the Irish, the younger Bradley looks poised for a bigger role next winter. And his production as a quality shooter, with good size who can attack off the bounce showed he's off to a promising start.

He was another double digit scorer at 12 points a game.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1295741"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Rounding out the double figures scorers on the weekend is another McGuinness standout.
