Continues to fall out of rotation
Brown provided two points (1-2 FG) and one rebound over seven minutes during Saturday's 80-77 loss to Ole Miss.
ANALYSIS
Although Brown has started in all seven of his appearances this season, he recorded a season-low seven minutes Saturday after playing just nine in the previous outing. Even if he continues to start, Brown's limited playing time doesn't allow him to be a productive fantasy contributor.
Nov 25, 2023
Sees role diminish
Brown racked up one point (0-3 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one block across nine minutes during Friday's 79-63 loss to Villanova.
ANALYSIS
Despite starting, Brown is averaging 3.3 points and 3.3 rebounds in 11.0 minutes across his last three appearances. Nick Jourdain, Ahston Hardaway and Malcolm Dandridge all played more minutes off the bench than Brown on Friday.
Nov 18, 2023
Records six rebounds
Brown logged eight points (3-8 FG, 2-4 FT) and six rebounds across his 18 minutes during Memphis' 92-75 win Friday against Alabama State.
ANALYSIS
Memphis' 2023-24 team comfortably won all of its first three games. Despite their results and playing less due to them, Brown logged at least five rebounds during each matchup.
Nov 17, 2023
Makes first start Friday
Brown is in the starting five for Friday's game versus Alabama State.
ANALYSIS
After coming off the bench in the first two games of the season, Brown joins the starting lineup in place of Malcolm Dandridge. Despite not starting, Brown has played more minutes than Dandridge in each of the Tigers' first two games of the season, so it's not all that surprising that he finds himself in the starting five. In two games this season he is averaging 11.5 points, five rebounds, 1.5 steals and one block in 18.5 minutes per game.
Nov 7, 2023
Makes defensive impact off bench
Brown ended Monday's 94-77 victory over Jackson State with 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-3 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 20 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Despite coming off the bench Wednesday, Brown actually played more minutes (20) than Memphis' starting center, Malcolm Dandridge (18). Even if Brown continues to be the Tigers' backup, he should receive enough playing time to make an impact on both sides of the floor.
Nov 2, 2023
Another productive exhibition
Brown started and recorded 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-7 FT) to go along with four rebounds and a steal across 20 minutes in Thursday's 104-63 exhibition victory over LeMoyne-Owen.
ANALYSIS
Brown has now started both exhibition games for Memphis while the team awaits a decision from the NCAA regarding a possible eligibility waiver for DeAndre Williams. The Lafayette transfer has scored exactly 14 points in each, in addition to being active on the defensive end. He potentially stands to benefit the most for as long as Williams remains sidelined.
Aug 10, 2023
Double-double in DR
Brown scored 23 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in Memphis' final game in the Dominican Republic, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown is slated to be Memphis' top center in 2023-2024, and it's an encouraging performance to see the big man gobble up a double-double overseas. It's been a wild ride for Brown, who is on his fourth program after spending a season with Nevada, a season with Arizona and two seasons with Louisiana-Lafayette. Now's he looks primed to hold down the front court for Memphis in what could be his send-off season.
Jun 27, 2023
Commits to Memphis
Brown has committed to transfer to Memphis, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown is set to join Memphis as a graduate transfer. The 6-foot-11 forward started in all 33 of his appearances for Louisiana-Lafayette last season, averaging a team leading 19.3 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game. Brown is joining his fourth team in five collegiate seasons and is a former five-star recruit.
Jun 9, 2023
Enters transfer portal
Brown entered the transfer portal on Friday, VerbalCommits.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After withdrawing from the NBA Draft, Brown opted not to return to the program, but instead finish his collegiate career elsehwere. Brown tested the NBA draft waters after leading the team in points (19.3), rebounds (8.6) and blocks (1.2) per game last season. The 6-foot-11 forward is a former five-star recruit and McDonald's All-American.
May 31, 2023
Withdraw from draft
Brown withdrew from the 2023 NBA Draft on Wednesday, according to Jon Chepkevich of DraftExpress.com.
ANALYSIS
Instead, Brown will use the one season of collegiate eligibility that he has remaining. The big man averaged 19.3 points and 8.6 rebounds across his 33 games started as a Louisiana-Lafayette junior.
Apr 25, 2023
Enters 2023 draft
Brown has entered the 2023 NBA Draft, according to NBA.com.
ANALYSIS
Brown averaged 19.3 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks across 33 of 34 games played during Louisiana's 2022-23 season. These rates were excellent enough for his selection to this year's All-Sun Belt First Team. Despite suffering a first-round loss to Tennessee during March Madness 2023, Brown logged 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-2 FT) and seven rebounds. This year may be the best chance he will ever have of getting drafted.
Mar 7, 2023
Powers Ragin Cajuns to NCAA Tournament
Brown amassed 13 points (6-16 FG, 1-4 FT), 16 rebounds and two assists across 38 minutes during Monday's 71-66 victory over South Alabama.
ANALYSIS
Brown helped the Ragin Cajuns punch their ticket to the Big Dance with his second-highest rebounding total of the season. He's now recorded a double-double in five of his last six games, averaging an impressive 19.3 points and 11.3 rebounds over that span. The 6-11 center gives this Louisiana team some high-major experience, as he has previous stints with both Nevada and Arizona. He's also a former four-star recruit, so the pedigree is definitely there.
Jan 28, 2023
Suiting up Saturday
Brown (illness) is starting Saturday's game against Georgia Southern.
ANALYSIS
Brown missed Tuesday's game against Troy but is set to return to the starting lineup. He has played a big role for Louisiana-Lafayette this season, averaging 19.8 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 31 minutes per game.
Jan 26, 2023
Not playing Thursday
Brown has been ruled out of Thursday's game against Troy due to an illness, Kevin Foote of The Baton Rouge Advocate reports.
ANALYSIS
This is a huge loss for Louisiana-Lafayette, as Brown has been their biggest scoring threat and was on a scorching run before sitting out here. He's averaging 19.7 points, 9.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game in January, and his next chance to play will come Saturday against Georgia Southern.
May 31, 2022
Returning to school
Brown has withdrawn from the NBA Draft and will return to school for his fourth collegiate season, Jeff Goodman of Stadium reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown is a former McDonald's All-American that took a while to catch on at the collegiate level, but he put forth the best season of his career in 2021-22 with Louisiana, posting 15.3 points and 8.6 rebounds across 28.7 mpg. He'll now get a chance to expand on those numbers with another season of development, and more opportunities should await Brown given his frontcourt running mate Theo Akwuba has already transferred to Ole Miss.
Feb 25, 2022
Starting Friday
Brown is starting on Friday as Louisiana-Lafayette takes on Georgia State, Jordan Majewski of SBNation.comi reports.
ANALYSIS

Jan 13, 2022
Will start Thursday

ANALYSIS

Jan 13, 2022

ANALYSIS

Brown has started 11 games for Louisiana-Lafayette this season, averaging 14.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.7 blocks on 27.7 minutes per game. The Ragin' Cajuns will look forward to his return as his interior presence will be a major factor in their game against Texas-Arlington if he is able to return.
Jan 6, 2022
Ruled out Thursday
Brown (undisclosed) will not play Thursday, Kevin Foote of theadvocate.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown is set to miss his first game of the season against Arkansas State. The 6-foot-11 forward averages 14.8 points and 8.8 rebounds for the Ragin Cajuns in 27.7 minutes per game this season. His next chance to return is Saturday against Arkansas-Little Rock.
Sep 22, 2021
Eligible for 2021
Brown was cleared by the NCAA on Wednesday and is eligible for the 2021-22 season, Sean Paul of the Mountain West Wire reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown received his waiver along with fellow two-time transfer Antwann Jones, so both players are officially good to go for 2021. Last season at Arizona, the 6-foot-11 forward averaged 9.4 points and 5.2 rebounds in 19.4 minutes per game, and was also named the Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year.
May 28, 2021
Commits to UL-Lafayette
Brown announced Friday that he is transferring to Louisiana-Lafayette, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown is the second player to commit to the Ragin' Cajuns on Friday, joining San Jose State transfer Jalen Dalencourt. The 6-11 sophomore averaged 9.4 points and 5.2 rebounds in 19.4 minutes per game and was named Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year during his lone season at Arizona. Brown will need a waiver to play immediately since he's a two-time transfer and will still have three years of eligibility remaining.
May 3, 2021
Moving on from Arizona
Brown put his name in the transfer portal Monday, Jeff Goodman of WatchStadium.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Brown averaged 9.4 points and 5.2 rebounds while earning Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year honors last season. Off the back of an impressive late season surge, he'll now look to find an agreeable new landing spot.
Mar 9, 2021
Named Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year
Brown was named the 2020-21 Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
After spending a year on the sidelines following a transfer from Nevada, Brown excelled for the Wildcats as the first forward off the bench. The 6-11 sophomore had arguably his best effort against a tough frontcourt in USC on Feb. 20, as he put in 19 points and 13 rebounds en route to the upset victory. It's the first time in program history an Arizona player has received this award.
Feb 21, 2021
Outstanding against Trojans
Brown had 19 points (7-14 FG, 5-7 FT), 13 rebounds and an assist across 29 minutes in Saturday's 81-72 victory over USC.
ANALYSIS
Brown was able to hold his own against the Mobley brothers, who were whistled early and often in this contest. The effort matched Brown's second-highest scoring total of the season and also was his best rebounding mark since the Nov. 27 season opener. It did come as a bit of a surprise, however, as Brown had been averaging 7.8 points and 5.0 rebounds over his last five contests. A late season surge could help an Arizona squad that is very much on the outside looking in with respect to the NCAA Tournament.
Jan 31, 2021
Plays well off bench
Brown tallied 12 points (5-7 FG, 0-0 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds and zero assists in 19 minutes during Saturday's 71-50 win over California.
ANALYSIS
Brown had an efficient night with just two missed shots and also contributed on the defensive end - posting a steal and a team-high three blocks. Since coming off the bench over his last five games, Brown is averaging 18.8 minutes and 10.8 points per game and is shooting an impressive 60 percent from the field.
Jan 14, 2021
Not in starting five
Brown will not start Thursday's game against Oregon State, the Daily Wildcat reports.
ANALYSIS
In Brown's stead, Christian Koloko is set to draw his first start since December. To this point in the season, Brown had started all 12 games while averaging 20.3 minutes.
