A native of Marietta, GA, Brown is headed into his eighth NBA season after being taken with the third overall pick of the 2016 NBA Draft out of California.
The 26-year-old Brown is coming off of a Second Team All-NBA performance in 2022-2023. He appeared in 67 games last season, averaging a career-high 26.6 points on .491 shooting, 6.9 boards and 3.5 assists over 35.9 minutes a night.To be eligible for a supermax extension, a player must have completed at least seven years of NBA service and named to an All-NBA team in the previous season or the past two years before it.
