Jaylen Brown looking pretty awesome so far. One of those "can't miss" guys. Unreal athleticism.

I haven't seen Ben Simmons play, but if he's better than Jaylen Brown then he will be a Rock Star in the NBA. Jaylen Brown is a man child in the HS ranks.

Thanks OP. This is my first look at Jaylen Brown.

He's not. Brown is the best prospect in the country.

Been very impressed with his passing and basketball iq.

Anyone have any thoughts on how Brown compares to Stanley Johnson?

They're build's and athleticism are similar but that's all I know.

31 and 12 for brown. fouled out. probably could have had more if his team looked for him a bit more

Man I really want to land Brown. Something about a player who can rise and dunk the snot out of the ball is just fun to watch. Of course that's not all he does well but it's awesome. Best prospect in the country.

Same here and I can see why he rated so high. Like the way he finishes at the rim. Body is ready for collage, handles the ball well. Hope he comes to UK.

 

[~Keyser Soze~]

Malik Newman and Ivan Rabb are the 2 best players in this class.
