Not a surprise, but still cool:
BROWN is the eighth California player to earn the Pac-12 Freshman or Rookie of the Year award, joining Dave Butler (1982-83), Leonard Taylor (1984-85), Jason Kidd (1992-93), Tremaine Fowlkes (1994-95), Shareef Abdur-Rahim (1995-96), Leon Powe (2003-04) and Allen Crabbe (2010-11). The Atlanta, Ga., native and Wayman Tisdale National Freshman of the Year award finalist tied for the best scoring average among Pac-12 freshmen at 15.3 points per game and added 5.6 rebounds per contest, pacing the Golden Bears to their most regular-season victories (22) since 2011-12. He also earned recognition on the 2015-16 Pac-12 All-Conference First Team and All-Freshman Team.
