Jordan Brown, PF, Undecided

Composite Ranking: 16

Jordan Brown has almost a throwback back to the basket offensive game. It’s a refreshing change of pace to watch since it seems like less and less big men prospects have a game like this now. He isn’t an explosive leaper, but at 6-foot-10 he moves very well for his size.

He shows a willingness to bang down low, however he’s going to need to add some more strength to be effective at it as he’s currently listed at 210 pounds. Brown shows some nice touch on mid range jump shots, and hopefully that can eventually develop into an expanding shooting range.

Jordan Brown is more of a center in the modern NBA, but won’t be able to guard them until he adds muscle.
