Class of 2022 PF Maliq Brown (VA) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

[brian williams]

I’m excited for Maliq to add the physicality that’s missing from recent teams. Especially if he adds a few more pounds prior to arrival on campus.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Not big?

He's a 6-9 210 pound high school sophomore.

???

Doesn't look that big. I would expect him to tower over most kids he is playing against.

 

[rrlbees]

Played a bad team. Looks like the scoring was balanced from probably playing everyone.

Thanks for always posting the updates on our players.

Nice all around game for Brown. 14pts, 9rebs, 8asts, 6stls.

Feel like he’s gonna be very solid in the zone from day 1

I continue to be really impressed by his assist totals. A good passing PF who can also score, rebound and defend is pretty special.

Kid has a great all-around game and seemingly high motor.

JB loves dudes like this.
He’ll force JB’s hand and earn minutes.

My brother (not Dave) watched the game on stream and said he is an amazing passer.

he is a really well rounded player

I happened to completely by accident catch this kid's game last night. Pump the breaks, he's going to take a good amount of time.

He was also being checked by a 6'11" guy who looked like Greg Oden's older brother.

I have a feeling this kid may turn out to be the surprise of the class.

Will be fun to watch Maliq and Favour Aire keep playing against each other in the Syracuse / Miami games to come.

 

[SUFan44]

None of these guys is high impact from day one. They may play a lot of minutes by necessity, but I am not that high on any being able to be ACC All-Rookie caliber. Which is saying something, since we lose three starters.

We lose only 1 starter by eligibility.

We will be losing 3 starters.

Feel free to name your projection of those that will leave outside of Jimmy

Buddy. Cole. Jimmy.

Those three will not be back.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Buddy. Cole. Jimmy.

Those three will not be back.

Has it been leaked that Cole isn’t coming back? I hear the same. But why?

 

[SUFan44]

Has it been leaked that Cole isn’t coming back? I hear the same. But why?

He's in his fourth year of college, would be my guess.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

Buddy. Cole. Jimmy.

Those three will not be back.

Fair enough guess. Still thinking Buddy comes back and both JB and Buddy ride out into the sunset together in March 2023.

Buddy has already gone on record as saying he isn't coming back. So I'm not sure where you are getting that impression.

People have changed their minds. Andrew Szymt wasn't coming back until he was. But agree that I'm not sure that will be the case with Buddy.
