Portland recently signed Brown to a three-year deal (two years guaranteed) using the tax-payer mid-level exception. Brown is a development project but — as evidenced by this dunk — the athleticism is there. He was the No. 43 pick and arguably the most explosive athlete in this draft, but very raw in terms of skill development and game awareness. If he can develop those things, he could stick around the league for a long time.
And maybe win a dunk contest or two.
