Brown, who will be 24 before next season, started 45 games for the Los Angeles Lakers and remained a key part of their rotation even after the team remade their roster at the trade deadline.

Brown averaged 7.1 points and 4.1 rebounds while shooting 38.1% on 3s — one of the best shooting marks on L.A. last season. He also appeared in 76 total games, the most of any player on the Lakers. He lost playing time in the postseason, however, as Rui Hachimura and Jarred Vanderbilt became more featured players in coach Darvin Ham's playoff rotation.

At 6-foot-6, Brown is a good rebounder for his position and a sound defender to go along with his ability to knock down catch-and-shoot 3-pointers.

He was originally drafted by the Washington Wizards in the first round of the 2018 NBA draft after one season at Oregon. Brown made the league minimum of $1.8 million last year.
