First, I'm a Cal alum so I watched a lot of brown last year. For many of the reasons already stated, I would not draft brown and three. And I disagree that he is an insanely good athlete. A good one, yes. Insanely good, no.
That jump shot will limit him quite a bit. And there is a question of how well he can pplay without the ball.
Now on the plus side, brown has a rather slippery way about him. I mean, he seems to slither his way to the basketball with relative ease. He's a pretty good finisher but that will be more difficult in the NBA.
Bottom line: I'd pick him from 6-8 but not at three.
I also went to Cal and so follow the b-ball team there, part-time. If only Jaylen had a jump shot and a modest level of understanding of the game, he'd be vying for the #1 overall slot. Agree completely with you that picks 6-8 should be his range.
Do you like Ivan Rabb? Barring injury, I think he will be a top ten pick in the next draft and might prove to be a nice fit for CBS and the Celts.
Love Ivan rabb. I don't necessarily see a star but a solid pro that will do a little of everything. Also a solid head on his shoulders.
Pretty surprised he went back to school but look forward to seeing him next year.
