3 Things to know about Knicks’ Summer League star Charlie Brown Jr.

1: Brown went undrafted in 2019 and has played for four different teams

After a solid comeback season at Saint Joseph’s, Charlie Brown Jr. declared for the 2019 NBA Draft. He went undrafted but signed a two-way contract with the Hawks. Brown appeared in only 10 games for Atlanta toward the beginning of the 2019-20 season before he was signed by the Timberwolves in December 2020.

Brown was waived by the Timberwolves a few days after and signed with the Iowa Wolves in January 2021. A few months later, the Thunder signed Brown to a 10-day contract, which led to another 10-day contract from Oklahoma City. He then signed a multi-year deal with the Thunder toward the end of the 2020-21 season but was waived before the 2021-22 season began.

After returning to the Iowa Wolves, Brown was traded to the Delaware Blue Coats in October 2021. He spent a couple of months in Delaware before being signed to a 10-day contract with the Mavericks in December 2021. Shortly after he went back to the Blue Coats, he signed a 10-day contract with the Sixers, his hometown team. A few days later, Philadelphia signed him to a two-way contract.

Fast forward to the 2022-23 season, Brown was back in Delaware with the Blue Coats and he helped the team win the G League Championship.

Brown has already had quite the journey in the NBA, but perhaps his showing at Summer League will lead to another contract, whether it be with the Knicks or another team. The three games that he’s played in Las Vegas thus far have caught people’s attention, so hopefully he’ll get another chance to sign with a team in 2023-24 after spending the entire 2022-23 season in the G League.
