-Twitchy downhill driving guard, love the pace that he plays at with the ball in his hands. Brown blocked a big’s shot off his back foot in transition, was a matchup nightmare in transition that put pressure on his opponents’ transition defense, scored off a spin move lay off the window in transition, scored off a hop step lay off glass after he grabbed the defensive rebound to initiate the break. Love the pace and aggression that he plays with at both ends of the floor to accentuate his physical gifts.

Brown is already well known across the Prep League, but this weekend gives him another stage to remind people why. He’s a natural scorer with the ability to heat up quickly, knocking down shots from deep while also being effective inside the arc. His size and length allow him to impact both ends, making him more than just a scorer. If he gets into a rhythm early, he can take over games and carry momentum for his squad.

Read EvaluationTom Keller | Prep Hoops Scout
Rangy athlete who uses his length to make things happen on either end of the floor. Like how he finds different ways to find teammates for scoring chances. Seeks out contact when on the attack. He is able to glide to the bucket off the bounce. Would like to see him become more consistent from deep. Also hoping against hope he can add some muscle onto to his frame which make his transition to college a lot smoother.

A Second Team All-State selection, Brown averaged 22 points per game for the Saints and established himself as a highly productive offensive threat. The high academic prospect is an above-the-rim finisher who can create his own offense off the dribble and consistently put pressure on the defense. He is a more than capable shot maker with range, pairs that with a high basketball IQ, and plays with confidence. Brown’s scoring ability and overall feel for the game make him a dynamic backcourt prospect.
