He lives in the paint at SU because he's essentially playing out of position. But based on the limited times he's shot from outside and based on the form of his shot at the free throw line, there are indications that Maliq can shoot. And he still has two years to prove that he can.

But what I see in Maliq and why I'm speculating that he can develop into a NBA player are all the intangibles in his game - the deflections, the steals, the post passing, the footwork, the rebounding, and just the overall high basketball IQ and natural feel for the game that he repeatedly demonstrates. He makes winning plays now as a college soph playing out of position.  As he gets stronger, matures and expands his offensive repertoire, I can see a defensive minded Coach like Thibs wanting Brown as a second unit "glue guy" type.  Will he be a lottery pick? No.  But I can see him developing to the point where he makes a NBA roster and becomes a glue guy that sticks.
