#14 Bruce Brown

Detroit Pistons’ fans were excited when the team drafted Bruce Brown, and rightfully so. If he didn’t get injured just a short time into his sophomore season at Miami (FL), he very likely would’ve been a first-round pick.

He arguably had the best Summer League performance out of anyone the team. Brown was aggressive, tough on defense, and stuffed the stat-sheet. He averaged 11.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.7 steals and 0.5 blocks per game.

Unfortunately, there were some negative signs from his Summer League play as well.

The knock on Brown has always been his shooting, and it was dreadful back in July. He shot a miserable 29 percent on 73 field-goal attempts. There’s a lot that Brown does well, and it looks like he’s ready to become a consistent, NBA player.

But his lack of shooting could keep him from seeing the court this season. Especially with Dwane Casey’s emphasis on 3-point shooting.
