Thursday night, the Washington Wizards selected forward Troy Brown Jr. from Oregon University with the 15th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
This is news for RMNB because you need to see what Brown wore to his own draft party.

A Vegas Golden Knights jersey!
Brown, like Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper, is a Las Vegas native.
Brown the 6’7 forward/guard out of Oregon, only played one year of college ball where he averaged 11.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game.
The selection has been criticized by Wizards fans because Brown’s position of small forward is the position the Wizards have the most depth with Otto Porter Jr. and Kelly Oubre. Brown is also several years away from truly being able to contribute in the NBA, years the Wizards don’t exactly have to wait.
