HoopInsider_Cooper Posted August 9, 2008 Report Posted August 9, 2008 HoopInsider posted a month or so ago that J'Covan Brown was considering heading to play pro ball in Europe.... Jimmy Hicks of RCS Sports adds: After watching Brandon Jennings sign for a nice wad of cash and get even more cheese with a sneaker deal, you can’t tell me that J’Covan Brown hasn’t atleast been thinking about possibly exploring a professional career overseas (if the proper opportunity presents itself). Dozens of whispers have been floating abroad questioning if / when Brown will get academically approved through the NCAA Clearinghouse. Well, one thing’s for certain, Brown is proving he has enough talent to produce very impressive numbers against players who have years of NBA and Major D1 experience. Brown is the starting pg for Team Black in the Nike Pro City Summer Basketball League, coached by Ricky Johnson (brother of Rashard Lewis) who also roamed the sidelines with the Rashard Lewis Southeast Texas Elite this past summer. Last week Brown scored 27pts in a duel against PSP All Stars (feat. fellow amateur celebrity Tack Minor, who netted a game high 34pts). I’m wishing and hoping that Brown indeed received the required written approval / release from the University of Texas compliance officer which enables him to participate in this NCAA approved league which is also populated by professional players currently under contract.
AllstarDad8 Posted August 9, 2008 Report Posted August 9, 2008 Its pretty hard to not give in for that kind of money, especially being that young. He's probably not the only person thinking about Euro.

Curious to know if t.u. even knows that he is playing in this particular summer league or if they even care because they know he's not coming to their school.
Bucof2010 Posted August 9, 2008 Report Posted August 9, 2008 Don't NBA teams have camps similar to walk on opportunities?
the wise one Posted August 10, 2008 Report Posted August 10, 2008 Don't NBA teams have camps similar to walk on opportunities? yes they do but it is nearly impossible to make a team through one of those try outs
