was as good as advertised in his evening game I took in. Brown is essentially unguardable when he creates space off closeouts or ball screens. The Wisconsin commit can either get all the way to the paint to finish, or uses his deadly 1-2 pullup to consistently score from the mid range. Brown hit some deep triples in this game showcasing his ability to score at all three levels with ease. Brown is aware of the attention he garners, and spent the second half of this game finding and looking for his teammates to get involved on dumpoff layups or wide open kick out 3s. Brown is the real deal, and will be extremely fun to follow for his senior year and career post high school.

Prep Hoops Ranking: 5
Brown can affect the outcome in a positive manner from both guard positions and might be at his best when he creates space for his accurate mid-range game. The recent University of Wisconsin commit has been instrumental in the success of the Wauwatosa West program the past three seasons and is one of the contenders for the prestigious Mr. Basketball award in 2026-27. He averaged 20.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 2.9 steals for the Trojans as a junior and is ranked No. 66 nationally in the 2027 class by 247Sports.

Brown seemed slightly off his game in the first half even though he did score nine points. But he caught fire in the second half and his electric long-distance shooting display in the final four minutes was something to behold. Seemingly sinking each three-point shot from further out of the court, Brown buried four straight triples to keep the outcome in doubt until the final horn sounded. Brown finished with 29 points and five three-point baskets for the Trojans. His combination of size, unselfishness, skill and penchant for making the big plays are major assets for Wauwatosa West, and all of those positive traits to his game figure to translate well to the next level.

flexed why he is the #5 player in the recent 2027 player rankings with his performance on Friday night. I have seen Brown play in summer league events and on streams, but tonight I was able to see the progression in person Jalen has made with his game since starting his high school career. Brown was dominate on Friday pouring in 35 points, pulling down several rebounds, and using his elite athleticism to disrupt offense for Sussex Hamilton. The 6’5 junior had five triples and was able to score at all three levels at will during the GMC matchup. Brown was averaging 17.6ppg coming into this game, and will look to expand his scoring as we inch closer to the playoffs. Brown has rightfully gained the attention and offers of several power five programs. He is poised for big playoff performances leading into the spring and summer club season.
