(2020) G Luke Brown

[TheWatShot 13,381]

I read that he made 44 free throws in a row before his first miss. Even if he has a bad night shooting he'll still score a lot because of how often he'll be fouled.

Indy Star just had this article on 83-year old Jerry Hoover who's coaching Blackford HS.  The middle part of the article has quite a bit about Luke Brown who is a distant cousin of Coach Hoover and was previously homeschooled.   Oh, and while Blackford is 3-0 to start this season, the previous 2 seasons it was 0-47!!

They actually did win a game last season. The previous two seasons were winless.

Every good white point guard ever. He's better than them all. Cousy, Stockton, look out.

[scoot 116]

Unknown prospect because he was home schooled prior to high school.

He is similar to Halls at this point more than he is anyone else. He is good but Blackford hasn't played anyone that's any good yet so we'll see what happens.

The kid is good. I watched him play 8 times during the fall. With that he will have a tougher test tonight because Alexandria is the first team Blacks has played that mug slow him down. Not to mention he is putting a target on his back with his comments calling himself Steve Nash Jr. I can tell you my brothers team is already game planning to slow him down and we don't play till February.  I do think he will stayover 20 ppg. but I don't know if he can stay over 30 but time will tell.

I don't like those types of self proclaimed nicknames.

Maybe a 5'10 version.

[TheWatShot 13,381]

Brown went for 48 tonight on 18/23 shooting in a 69-68 win over Monroe Central. Blackford is now 7-1.

 

Also, 48 was a Blackford single-game scoring record.

[TheWatShot 13,381]

Apparently Brown set another record last Saturday: most points ever scored by a freshman in one game. The record had previously belonged to Deshaun Thomas (45).

 

Way too early to offer, but Archie should keep an eye on this kid.
