offensive analysis
1. As the second scorer in the team, Braun plays a special role in the offense. While he scores mostly on spot-ups and off-ball moves in transition, he’s also pretty much ubiquitous in the halfcourt, simply setting screens, making cuts with his feel for the game, and using his own. Energy to impact offensive rebounding.
2. In transition offense, Braun can score 1.19 points per round, surpassing 77% of other players. His efficiency is undoubtedly an important improvement for a team like Kansas that is keen on running and bombing.
3. Braun can score 1.15 points per jump shot and 1.16 points per finishing opportunity. Both statistics show that he is the best half-court offense. His shooting skills are solid, and he even completed pull-up threes in the absence of space and time.
Defensive analysis
1. Braun represents an excellent combination of speed and strength. Even though he is a little short in height, he can still complete excellent defense.
