    Lorenzo Brown: At 6’4 – 6’5 Lorenzo Brown is a creative passer and ball handler with starter potential. I think people look at NC State’s disappointing season and that basically killed his draft stock. IMO Lorenzo Brown is better Prospect than Michael Carter Williams(Who can potentially be a lottery pick.) Sure his shooting percentage went down but he had knee surgery in the off season, and injured his ankle which lingered towards the end of the season. Shooting needs work but that can be fixed. How come dude is barely mention when it comes to the top pg prospects?
    PG Prospects(IMO)
    Trey Burke
    Dennis Schroeder
    Lorenzo Brown
    Myck Kabongo
    MCW/Erick Green

      12 ppg 4rpg 7apg 2spg .5bpg and had 22 and 9 assist on 60% shooting in the tournament. To me he’s a mid-late first to me early second.

        Shooting does need work and cutting down the turnovers. But you can say that with every other young pg.

    He just disappeared during games. He has some talent, but I question his mental readiness for a higher level.

      Be honest how many guys in this draft besides Trey Burke can you say stepped up in big games. MWC wasn’t good in the final four. Ben McLemore didn’t show up until the Michigan Game, Anthony Bennett, Shabazz, and Marcus didn’t really do good in the tournament. Most guys in this draft don’t show up in big games. I not saying Lorenzo Brown is the next big thing or anything I’m just saying with his size, pass first mentality, and creativity he has potential to be a good starting PG in the NBA.

        all of those guys you named are freshman outside of brown.burke is a soph,and brown is a jr.all those guys would be scary as soph’s and juniors.i think brown is a decent talent but when is the last time there has been a good tall point guard?

          Penny 93-00
          Shaun Livingston is a good pg
          Vasquez is a good pg

          I’m not saying he’s a superstar or allstar but to me he can definitely be a starter if he works on his jumpshot. Besides MCW, Lorenzo Brown is the best passer in the draft. At 6’5 guy with that type of vision who is pass first and team player, scouts will love a player like that.

    I could see the Mavs taking him with their 2nd round pick if he is there. I think there’s no question he’ll get drafted just based on size. I guess we’ll have to wait for his workouts to see where he ranks.

      I doubt he’ll drop that far(maybe he will idk) Cavs need a backup pg and that have two picks in the early second, Sacramento needs a pass first pg, and Philadelphia also needs a backup pg. All have early second round picks.
