Miami basketball fans collectively held their breath this offseason as there was some chatter that their 6’5” combo guard, Bruce Brown, would test the NBA waters and leave after only one season in Coral Gables. Luckily for Canes’ fans, Brown elected to stay for his sophomore year.
As a freshman, Brown averaged 11.8 points per game, 5.6 rebounds per game (second best on the team), 3.2 assists per game, 2.0 turnovers per game, 1.5 steals per game, and 0.5 blocks per game while shooting an efficient 45.9% from the field, 74.4% from the charity stripe, and 34.7% from behind the arc.
