Stats/accomplishments: As a senior, Brown averaged 27.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 2.1 steals per contest to earn third team MaxPreps All-America honors in 2024-25.
Outstanding achievement: Led USA Basketball U19 team to the gold medal at the 2025 FIBA World Cup, averaging 14.9 points and 6.1 assists per game – both team highs at the event.
Needs work: While Brown showed flashes during his freshman season, he struggled with his consistency as he shot just above 40 percent from the field and below 35 percent from 3-point range. He also struggled defensively at times.
Best fit/likely landing spot: Brown is projected to be selected somewhere in the No. 5-10 range. The Dallas Mavericks could be an ideal fit as the team looks to align with a younger core built around Cooper Flagg.
