The next two players selected in the same year were selected by the No. 2 Los Angeles Clippers Tyson Chandler And the Atlanta Hawks picked it up Pau Gasol . Brown also promised Jordan that he would not let him down.
As the first high school draft pick in history, and Jordan's hand-picked, Brown carried a huge amount of pressure, he played a total of 57 games in his rookie season, only 14.3 minutes per game. Because Jordan was eager to get the Wizards to the playoffs, Brown was removed from the game whenever he made a mistake, which discouraged him. Although he has always worked hard, the people who had high expectations of him whenever he underperformed always threw disappointment and blame at him without reservation, saying that he was "a good man". Parallel trade number one ". [6]
2002-03 season, Stackhouse And Larry Hughes came to the Wizards, and Brown's situation with the Wizards remained largely unchanged despite small improvements. [7]
In the summer of 2003, after two failed playoff appearances, the Wizards "fired" Jordan, his contract as a player expired and the team "chose not to reuse him in the front office."

Technical evaluation

broadcast
EDITOR
Big man with mobility, poor use of hands, lack of instinct at both ends of the offense and defense; Good pick-and-roll defense, but poor shot blocking and rebounding ability; Able to shoot a roll over jump shot in the post. Bad free throws. Not with the ball. [28] ( ESPN scouting report Warriors )
Attack
Kwame Brown takes long free throws, can't shoot from the outside, doesn't score well in the post or catch the ball in the paint. His fouls and secondary attacks are good, but he can make opponents feel at ease when he is on the field, and the style of play is not always hard. [29] ( ESPN )
defend
Kwame Brown's most beautiful stats are a good rebound rate, and the pick-and-roll defense also plays a role. But his poor weak-side defense and inability to block obscured those virtues. [29] ( ESPN )
