NBA Draft 2013: Minnesota Timberwolves Select Lorenzo Brown with the No. 52 Pick

The Timberwolves may have added some value with this pick in the second round.

ESPN College Basketball Anylyst Jay Bilas just mentioned he believes Lorenzo Brown is a first round talent.

Time will tell.

Here is what draftexpress.com thinks of his game:

“Brown remains an excellent prospect from a physical standpoint, standing around 6’5 with a wiry 186-pound frame. Though he has excellent size for the NBA, he is just an average athlete, more smooth than dynamic. Though he possesses good quickness in the open floor and compensates somewhat with his agility and body control, he lacks the overall explosiveness scouts covet in point guard prospects.”

“Brown is a crafty scorer off of the dribble, however, where he shows the ability to take the ball to the basket due to his excellent handles, above average first step, and smooth athleticism. He is a creative finisher around the basket, but his lack of strength and explosiveness do him few favors when attempting to finish over against bigger and more athletic post defenders. That being said, he displays a knack for creating his own shot – on the perimeter, from mid-range, and around the basket – and has improved significantly in getting open looks from his sophomore to his junior season.”
