Suspense revealed that brownie-James chose to bring his talent to NCAA.
On May 7, Beijing time, brownie promised to join the University of Southern California. In the three ways of NCAA, NBA Development League and overseas league matches, brownie chose NCAA according to the original intention of “wanting to go to college. Instead of going to Duke and other giants, brownie chose the University of Southern California, which had never won the championship in young pioneer team history.
From geographical factors (close to home), team allocation factors (with old teammates), team positioning factors (3D puzzles with ball holding attributes), coach factors (trained similar players) considering all aspects, it is a reasonable choice to choose University of Southern California brownie.
The template of Brownie is the 76-member defender Melton, whose alma mater is the University of Southern California.
As the second generation of the well-known ball, Brownie was placed under a microscope from an early age. Everyone wanted to see if brownie could inherit his father’s career and enter NBA in the future. Brownie of course knew how much pressure he would face to play basketball as the son of LeBlanc James, but he did not flinch. LeBlanc gave his son the freedom to choose the road. After trying brownie, he decided that basketball was his lifelong pursuit.
“I have always asked brownie and Blythe to find out whether they love basketball. In the end, if you do it just because your parents are doing it, you will not succeed and will soon fail.” LeBlanc said.
Among many new stars, brownie may be the one with the most serious polarization in the wind Review. No wonder, after all, he has a superstar father who is used as a reference by the outside world. People who admire brownie can find the bright spots on him, while those who don’t like him think he is just the protagonist of my superstar father.
The performance of the first two years of high school career in brownie was seriously inconsistent with expectations. In the first year of high school, only 4.1 points were scored, and the second year of high school received surgery because of menisci tear.
When entering the senior three season, brownie ranked 49th in ESPN and lower in other versions of admissions. At that time, people in the industry were not optimistic about the prospect of brownie, and his height was 1 meter 91 (note: The real height is still a mystery at present, there are two statements: 1 meter 91 and 1 meter 93, more than 1 meter 91) playing combo guard has no advantage. He has excellent sports ability but cannot be abnormal. What’s more, he did not rule the high school competition at the beginning like other supernovae.
“I think Brownie is good, but last year I watched the NBA joint trial. Only 2-3 players are no more than 1.91 meters tall, but they have amazing bounce and speed. Therefore, with a figure of brownie, it is difficult to enter the NBA.” An insider commented.
However, since the third year of senior high school, Brownie has made crazy progress, especially in the fourth year of senior high school, the market in brownie has soared rapidly. Brownie of his body shape and athletic ability have visible progress, and his muscle lines are more obvious. His bounce, explosive power and confrontation have been greatly improved. Projection and defense have become brownie labels. During this year, the development of many new stars at the same level stagnated, but brownie improved to become a five-star high school student, ranking 19th in ESPN.
Brownie have performed well in several major competitions. Nike EYBL tour scored 11.5 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists in brownie games. Facing Christopher Columbus High School in the Hoophall classic game, he scored 13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 steals in 3-point 8 shots. McDonald’s All-Star game scored 15 points and 4 assists in 5 points brownie. At the Nike basketball summit, 11 points were scored brownie, and the fourth quarter hit the key three points.
In the ESPN version 2024 NBA simulation draft, Brownie has been regarded as a potential lottery show, and draft expert Jonathan Giovanni is probably the most optimistic about brownie in the industry, he believes that Brownie has the potential to participate in the NBA draft and become a lottery show after playing in college for one year. Giovanni used a lot of space in the scout report to praise the external defense pressure ability, projection ability and basketball IQ of Brownie. What he specifically mentioned was, brownie may be the best outside defender of the same age in the United States.
There is no need to compare the data of Brownie high school career with LeBlanc in high school. They are obviously not of the same level or style. LeBlanc is the core of holding the ball, which is super huge. While brownie is a 3D player with the attribute of the second ball holding point, which is a puzzle.
After joining the University of Southern California next season, Brownie will also play this role, which is the selling point of his impact on NBA.
The University of Southern California’s enrollment quality this year is the top 10 in the United States. Last season, the chief scorer, who scored 17.7 points on average, stayed in the team, Buji Ellis, isaiah Collier, the top point guard ranked first in ESPN high school ranking, has already promised to join the University of Southern California. The University of Southern California is the top 25 strong team in the United States in the new season.
In the new season, Collier and Ellis are likely to become backcourt partners and major players. Unless Coach Andy Enfield moves flanking Player Kobe Johnson to number four, there is a high probability of brownie to play a substitute, play the role of second ball holding point during rotation time, and most of the time use projection and defense to help the team.
For brownie, this role can help him reduce pressure and maximize his advantages of accurate projection and strong defense.
I had a cooperation experience with Collier in McDonald’s All-Star Game on Brownie. The chemical reaction between the two is excellent. The Brownie ball style is perfectly compatible with Collier who likes a large number of ball holding organizations and attacks, the combination of them is equivalent to the combination of James Harden and Melton, Brunson and Josh Hart.
In the 2016-17 season, Enfield had the experience of successfully sending Melton to NBA. Melton was only a Samsung high school student when he graduated from high school, but Enfield trained Melton as an elite defensive player. Melton averaged 8.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists in the freshman season, 69 steals and 37 caps were sent out in a single season.
Melton was only selected in the 46th place in 2018 for many reasons. He was banned in the sophomore season because of the enrollment scandal of the University of Southern California. He didn’t play in the second season after dropping out. His three-pointer projection was still weak at that time and his height was too short.
The height and projection of Brownie are stronger than Melton at that time, and his prospect is better than Melton. In addition to Melton, brownie templates include Gary Harris, Derek White, Hart, and Zhu holerdi. Only hollerdi is an all-star, but everyone is an indispensable puzzle for a strong team. Except Melton, everyone has a contract with an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars.
As a scout said, “Brownie is not a top star, but that doesn’t mean he can’t be a good player.” Nowadays, 3D players with ball holding attributes are needed by every team.
Considering that LeBlanc had already expressed his wish to compete with his son on the same stage, brownie is likely to participate in the NBA draft in 2024. In the next year, brownie need to avoid injuries, play their own roles, and try their best to improve the presence of projection stars and defense. If you do this well, Brownie will have the opportunity to enter NBA in your own way.
“What I want to write is my own story, and I want to go my own way,” Brownie once said in an interview with Sports Illustrated, “I don’t want to go the way my father walked.”
