“Instead of taking 500 or 1,000 shots he came in and took 250 perfect shots a day,” Young said. “He came in and stuck the landing with his balance on each one.”
I remember when he decommitted from A&M and came to MU, he had a pretty low recruiting profile because his dad insisted he was a 'point forward' and nobody was buying it and he didn't have the mentality to take over AAU games. Certainly looks like they played the long game in terms of development correctly.

“He’s always played point guard all his life, even here with me,” said Lee High School coach Greg Brown, who doubles as Brown’s father. “Then he grew into that 6-7 frame and we started stretching him out, and now he shoots so well. He’s learned to have a post game as well. He does a little bit of everything.”
“They’re getting a kid that can play multiple positions, number one,” Greg Brown said. “He likes to share the ball. That’ll work well with all the talent Coach Martin has brought in, to have a kid come in who doesn’t mind taking a backseat and sharing the ball.”
