Goes for 14 points Brown amassed 14 points (4-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 113-92 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Brown ended just one point shy of tying his season-best scoring output, and the uptick in numbers was expected considering his move to a starting role. He has scored in double digits in each of his last two appearances and is gearing up to end the season on a strong note.

Scores nine points in first start Brown amassed nine points (3-5 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one block across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 117-107 loss to New Orleans.
Impact Brown received the first starting assignment of his brief career Wednesday and came through with his highest scoring total since March 12. The production had extra value from a fantasy perspective, as all of his points came by way of three-pointers. The Blazers have little to play for as they close out the season, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Brown's opportunities grow over the team's final games.
