Troy Brown Will Enter NBA Draft

Oregon Ducks Freshman Troy Brown Jr. declared for the NBA Draft on Tuesday afternoon.

Troy Brown Jr. made an impact for the Ducks during the 2017-18 season as a key Starter for a team that had trouble finding consistency when they needed it most.

Despite the struggles, Brown averaged 11 points and 3 assists per game this season for Oregon. He also led the team with 55 steals. The Five-Star talent showed early that he had a solid skill set showing off all facets of his game in the non-conference slate.

Brown’s three-point shooting prowess shined in November and December at Matthew Knight Arena. He struggled on the road through a good part of the Pac-12 season. In losses to Arizona and Stanford in particular, he struggled. Against the Wildcats he was 0 for 3 from beyond the arc and finished the game with just 4 points in 32 minutes on the floor.

His statistics at home were much better. Brown helped lead the way against Washington with 21 points off 8 for 12 shooting. He had 16 against Washington State in back to back Pac-12 wins.
