Very interesting. The kid is good.  He was all conference so and so and a very good scorer this year.  I believe his stock would have been higher had his team gotten out of the first round of the playoffs.

If he isn't being looked at in the first round then he should stay in school and get his degree.  I hope he is getting good advice.  He has really improved over the past three years.  Just watching him play this year, he didn't strike me as a NBA player yet.

I guess it really depends on who else is coming out this year. If not too many guards come out this year, it might be a good thing. Also look to see whose possibly coming out next year. Just maybe its his time.

Just get good advice.  Hold off on getting an agent.  The tournament isn't even over yet.  You never know who might come out and who might stay.  There were some surprises last year on kids staying in school.

He needs one more year of being the go-to guy for Texas. He would be a first-round pick next draft if he puts up the same numbers. He is leaving a year early if he actually goes, but early departures are a trade-mark of Texas Basketball

He'll be okay.

Yes he will. Can manufacture points and make plays for others as well as anybody else in the draft

Dove- Since Mr. Browns high school career took place mainly at Kelly (equivalent to about a 3-a public school) how did he achieve all of this without playing "real basketball"?

J'covan has improved every year at Texas.  He definitely has NBA skills.  He can score, shoot, great passer, and handles very well with both hands.  He has a very high basketball IQ.  He is ready in my opinion.  And this is from a guy who didn't think he would last this long at Texas.  He has really matured mentally and physically. Congrats J'covan.  Way to prove a lot of people wrong.

[/quote] Read what Aces-Full says about Brown. Brown was gifted with his talent long before he hit Kelly.

Brown released a statement today saying he has not made a decision:

He played his final two years in 5A Nash....

Maybe I got it wrong but I was thinking he played as a sophomore and junior at Kelly and spent his senior season at Memorial but missed a good portion of that season.

Played his junior season and half of his senior season at Memorial....If I recall, there were SEVERAL on this VERY BOARD that said he "would never wear a Texas uniform" or "he will be home in Port Arthur"...and ONLY one of them on here has admitted what they said and apologized....Any one else wanna "man up"? ::) 8)

I didn't post against him but I was definately a doubter. Congratulations are definately deserved for his success both on the court and off at UT. Good Luck and Congrats J'Covan


GO Bucs..

I was very skeptical about him coming out of high school. Never doubted his baskeball skills but his attitude on the court.He has grown up in Austin which is a credit to both he and Coach Barnes.I'm sure he has a ton of folks advising him but I hope he stays at UT one more season.If he improves as much this off season as he did last off season his draft status would definitely improve.UT produces some great NBA players but they have also had some recently who came out to early. Just curious what his degree field is? A diploma from the 40 acres could open some doors off the hardwood.

Just seen latest updates:
Longhorn guard J’Covan Brown will forego his senior season and enter the NBA draft, he announced today.

“There were a lot of reasons to come back to school next year, most importantly getting my degree and being around my teammates every day,” Brown said in a statement. “But the time has come for me to pursue a career in professional basketball and take care of my daughter, Jordyn.”
Nearly two weeks ago, the American-Statesman and other news outlets reported that Brown would leave for the draft, the Statesman citing an NBA source. Brown issued a statement in response indicating that no decision had been made.

Article says he is a likely late 2nd round pick or free agent.  2nd round money isn't guaranteed either.  I hope it works out well for him.  Personally, I think he should go higher than late 2nd.  He can play.
