2: Brown has experience playing 3×3 for USA Basketball

Charlie Brown Jr. was part of the inaugural FIBA 3×3 Americup in 2021 and took home the MVP trophy for the event. He led all scorers with 41 points en route to winning the gold for the United States.

Brown was named to the 2022 November World Cup Qualifying Team, where the United States finished 1-1. He competed for USA Basketball at the 2023 3X Nationals this past May in Colorado, and he was named MVP after scoring a team-high eight points in the championship.

At the end of June, Brown competed for Team Washington DC (one of Team USA’s 3×3 World Tour Teams) at the Orleans Challenger in France, where the team finished in sixth place. He also competed at the Poitiers Challenge in France.

If the United States qualifies for the 2024 Summer Olympics, Brown could be on the roster.
