Looking at the draft for a cheap big that could help and Brown keeps coming up.

-Older player that got better in college
-Standing reach over 8’10”
-Big frame (250lbs)
-Good NCAA production (16/6/2.5)
-55/45/80 shooting splits (on 3.2 3pt/gm)
-Played in a major conference

The drawback seems to be his lack of explosive movement stats, which are just ok, but not terrible, particularly for a guy over 250lbs.

Right now he is being projected as a back of draft guy, but I would love to snap him up and let him and Liddell battle for minutes behind Zion.

I'll be surprised if we come out of the draft with 2 picks. Just not enough roster spots to go around.

I keep reading Kobe Brown as Kobe Bryant.

We might have the beefiest power forward depth chart in the league with those 3.

Kobe Brown is a good player, gives me Grant Williams vibes as a guy who was very productive in the SEC as a primary option but lack of athleticism and size relegates him to more of good bench player role in the NBA. I'd take a chance on him IF we somehow get a 2nd rounder (I doubt it tbh)

Outside of Jokic has a 2nd round big ever worked out? I remember in the Demps era always needing a center but not having a 1st so 2nd round guys got brought up regularly. I don't remember any of them really sticking, at least not as more than end of rotation players.
