I think that Eric Brown could potentially make the NBA because he is a very skillful guard big man. Eric who is commonly known as E, Big E, Big Red, Air Head, and Caric. Eric stands out above the rest because of his elite ball handling skills. When I watch Eric take the ball down the court and make multiple defenders miss, I think to myself, “How can someone even handle a ball that well, let alone with such swagger.” And the secret is in the sauce, Eric has not only the best work ethic on the Wilson Hall varsity boys basketball team, but I’d go as far to say that he is the hardest working hopper in Sumter county. My reasoning for this is because Eric, being one of my good friends every time I go to his house, he is in the driveway putting up shots and dribbling around cones. Eric averaged roughly 7-8 points per game last basketball season and was very disappointed with his performance and is looking to greatly increase that number for the upcoming season. With Eric’s unique play style and work ethic, I do not see any possible scenario where Eric is not dropping at least 35+ points per game. If Eric can reach this goal for next season and show out in front of recruits in games, then there is a chance that Eric could be the next Lebron and not play in college and go straight to the league. Personally, as a friend and a fan of Eric Brown, I believe in him and his journey to the NBA and look forward to watching him ball out this upcoming season.
