I think people might be underestimating Brown. It’s hard to be a true seven-foot teenager. The height is actually an impediment to mastering the balance, speed, and lift that other, shorter athletes have at that age. He’ll grow into that body and harden up a bunch at UK. Look at Sacha’s physical transformation from high school senior to now.
For perspective, Brown is just as athletic as Isaac Humphries, an inch taller, and 5” longer across his wingspan. That by itself is worth a bunch of blocks, rebounds, and putbacks. Brown may not be OAD, but I would feel just fine about our postseason prospects with Brown, SKJ, and Wynyard manning the 5.
