Christian Brown cements his status among the elite
It has been a super busy and productive spring for Christian Brown. After peeking many peoples interest in the fall and during his first high school campaign at AC Flora, the 6-foot-5 wing has seen his stock and name heat up tenfold. The South Carolina native has gathered in high-major offer after high-major offer while showing off an improving skillset with an already elite motor and the athleticism to match.
Running with the Georgia Stars 15-under bunch this summer, Brown, who sports a 6-foot-9 wingspan, has teamed up with another top tier freshman prospect in Ashton Hagans, creating a dynamic backcourt. Known for his lethal leaping abilities and major energy exertions on the hardwood, the high upside wing has begun to round out his game, leading to better production each time out.
During his quick stay at the Nike Top 100 last week in Missouri, Brown was a top standout from the loaded event that took place on the campus at St. Louis University. The best of the best from the underclassmen ranks hit the floor but it was Brown’s play making skills, improved outside jumper, a shot that was backed by giant loads of confidence, and versatility on both ends, that showcased just how good Brown is and can be down the road.
Within the past two months alone, the high level athlete has brought in nine scholarship offers. Rattling each off, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Wake Forest, Oklahoma State, Georgia, Auburn, Georgia State, Florida State, and Tennessee have all jumped in with their pursuit of the 2019 recruit. While things have rapidly developed overnight, Brown has taken everything in stride. “I feel good. I really try not to worry about them,” the Georgia Stars product stated about his early, high-major recruitment. “I just want to have fun. It does feel good to know my hard work is paying off, though.”
Paying off it is as Brown has all of the physical tangibles in tow, to go along with the killer mindset that should make him a highly prioritized recruit this summer and beyond. Expect for the majority of the top programs on the east coast to remain in hard pursuit of the rising sophomore while others from outside of the region begin to become more accustomed to the high level prospect out of the state of South Carolina.
