The case for Mikel Brown as PG1 (assuming medicals check out for his back): - High 3 point rate (58.6% of his shots are 3s) Mavs need this badly. - Most creative passer of the class, uses eye manipulation better than the other PGs - Best package of height, wingspan, athleticism, and skillset of this PG class - When he’s on a heater, there’s no PG in the class that’s scarier with his 3 point shot. - Underrated driver and has ability to get by his defender consistently. Shot 65.3% at the rim. - Reminds me a lot of LaMelo Ball as a prospect, but with a better 3 pointer and less playmaking - Did not have good play finishers at Louisville, think his playmaking will pop even more in the NBA, especially in a situation like Dallas - Would call him a bad defender currently, but think there are tools there to make it neutral. - Willing to take the deep 3 already, sometimes to his detriment, but that’s the shot that creates gravity at the next level - Him or Wagler have the highest ceilings of the PG class

Brandon Williams on him connecting with Cooper Flagg on a lob: “Just wanted to get him going, any type of way. He was kind of struggling. He came up to me during the game and was just like ‘I need something going,’ just give him an easy look through the rim.”
