Looks like Brown getting significant time at the five for Duke with Ngongba out indefinitely

[Niastri]

Checking their roster, they only have 3 forwards and 3 centers, so this seems like a bit of hyperbole. He's going to play.

If you count Flagg as a guard, like ESPN's roster, you are correct.

Knueppel and Evans, both top 20 recruits, are listed as SF. Gillis is also a forward, and is slightly heavier than Brown, although shorter.

Maluach and Flagg get the starters minutes, with backup 4-5 minutes and SF minutes split 4 ways.

After Nbongba returns, he takes the backup center minutes, and then Brown is competing with three guys for whatever minutes are left at forward.

And all three guys who he's competing with are good to great 3 point shooters with a coach that loves to shoot the three...
