Brown hailed for spotup shooting

Here's Mark Titus on the best spotup college shooters:

Unlike the other guys on this list, Brown is a scorer first and a shooter second. He’d still be Missouri’s best player if the 3-point line didn’t exist — but it does exist, and Brown is that much better for it. Despite being the SEC’s leading scorer and therefore the focal point of opponents’ defensive schemes, Brown is shooting 47 percent from the 3-point line and he hasn’t had much of an off night all season. That second part is remarkable. Anybody who has ever played basketball knows that off nights are inevitable. Big things like defenses having your number or dealing with a nagging injury, or little factors like the lighting of the gym or the feel of the ball all come into play each and every night. Any one of those going wrong can cause a shooter to have an off night. Yet Brown continues to defy the basketball gods: His worst 3-point shooting performance of the season was a 2-for-8 effort against UCLA, and he still finished the game with 22 points.
