If the Pistons are looking for a three point threat but also want a player that isn’t afraid to drive to the hoop, Jabari Brown might just be the name Detroit fans hear called Thursday night. He isn’t the fastest player out there, but Brown finds ways to score in multitudes.
And he might have the prettiest jump shot in the draft.
When you watch him play, you can tell that he is NBA material. His strength and court awareness remind many of Lance Stephenson. He also plays a similar style that made Andre Igudala and Danny Granger household names. He could be the offensive compliment to KCP as well as play a similar role the Rodney Stuckey did last season for the Pistons.
