Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Considered by many to be the top long-term prospect among the Philly-area freshman class, Brown has the benefit of coming along slowly while playing a bench role in a lineup full of experienced upperclassmen. Still feeling the effects of an offseason shoulder injury, he had something of a coming-out party in front of the standing-room on Friday night, playing extended minutes in the second half and gaining confidence seemingly with each possession. Brown only scored 5 points but they came at critical junctures of the game. He showed confidence as a floor-spacer out to the arc, flashed the ability to create his own shot as a slasher, and thrived as a timely cutter and ball-mover in a way you don’t often see from such young prospects with his natural talent level. The flashes should only get more frequent as the season progresses, with the lanky swingman having a chance to break out on the recruiting scene as soon as this coming grassroots season.
