Fantasy Analysis
Brown sounds like a throw in for the Bucks as he's not likely to play again this season and his contract expires at the end of it. Brown played nine games for the Warriors and now heads to the Bucks. It is his seventh NBA stop in what started as the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft by the Wizards before the 2001-02 season. Brown has no Fantasy value at this time. (Updated 03/13/2012).

Brown was one of the few pleasant surprises in Fantasy last season, as a strong second half made him relevant in more than a few formats. After getting off to his typical slow start, Brown really played well over the final two months of last season. He averaged 9.4 points and 7.0 rebounds per contest in the 25 games following the All-Star break and really seemed to thrive under the tutelage of head coach Paul Silas. While Brown has been in the league for nine seasons now, it is still possible he has not reached his ceiling yet. Silas thinks Brown is just getting started and many feel he can get his scoring back into double-digits this season. However, we understand the how some owners may be reluctant to pull the trigger on Brown based on his track record. Still, because center is such a thin position, consider grabbing Brown in the later rounds on Draft Day as a No. 2 center option. (Updated 8/28/11)
