What Can Brown Do For You?

Wow.

Denham Brown just saved for Huskies season for at least another five minutes. With his Huskies down two points and just under six minutes left in the game Brown received a pass on the wing and attacked the rim. When three George Washington defenders collapsed on him he patiently held onto the ball in the air and threw up a reverse lay-up with less than a second left in the game.

Kudos to Hilton Armstrong who restrained himself from touching the ball while it was on the cylinder. Armstrong went up out of habit and restrained himself from tapping the ball in while it was in the rim. Huskies fans would have lynched the kid if he had cost the team a trip to the Final Four next weekend.

Brown has been content this season deferring to Rudy Gay, Marcus Williams and Armstrong and it may cost him a chance to get drafted this spring. It was great to see the kid get his moment in the spotlight this afternoon and help his team force the game into overtime.
