Givony speculated about Brown on a podcast with Wojnarowski (via ESPN):

“If you are a Top-10 recruit like Greg Brown, for example, who is uncommitted right now. He is picking between Texas, who are the favorites, and Memphis. He is arguably the best athlete in this class other than Jalen Green. I think he might look at this. You know? He might say: Is this a route that I need to explore? At the very least, he gets on the phone with Shareef Abdur-Rahim and he asks the right questions.”

Brown averaged 20.2 points, 6.8 rebounds and 0.8 block per game on the AAU circuit in 2019 for the Texas Titans. Brown also had the second-best Player Efficiency Rating (36.0 PER) as well as the second-most points per game (20.2) among all participants in the 17U adidas Gold Gauntlet in 2018-19. He pulled down 13.4 rebounds per game for his high school team as a senior. He is a highlight-reel worthy dunker, too, which can help his fame among more casual fans when he throws down on bigger stages.
