NCAA Basketball: Where will top 2018 prospect Jordan Brown end up?

Jordan Brown is one of the last few top-100 recruits left without a team. With a reported final list of teams, where will he ultimately end up?

The award for the longest and most secretive recruitment of the 2018 class goes to Jordan Brown, a five-star power forward prospect out of Napa, California. According to 247SportsComposite, he’s considered the 17th best player in the class, as well as the best available frontcourt prospect.

What makes the recruitment process for Brown so unique is that he’s yet to make any kind of decisions so far. With the exception of Romeo Langford, the others had already gone somewhere else, before decommitting. And while Langford himself had a few clear frontrunners, the forward has everyone guessing, with a number of teams seriously in the running for his services.

But now with the process winding down, it seems that there is a final group of teams for Brown.

While it hasn’t come out of the recruit’s camp themselves, this list would still make sense. Nevada was the first team to give him a scholarship offer, California is technically his home school, and Arizona is a blue blood program that gives him tremendous opportunities.

Brown is a 6’10 forward who has a versatile game on both offense and defense. He was a High School McDonald’s All-American and will have a huge impact on whichever school he chooses. But there are stark contrasts with each of the options. So how he goes about his decision, as well as the characteristics he views highest when choosing, will be fascinating to observe.

There are still some things to watch out for with these teams in the off-season, which could have an impact on what Brown decides to do. I won’t rank the teams, but instead, I’ll give take a look at what would happen if he decides to commit there.
