Kwame Brown is trying to return to the NBA.
Interperformances announced Monday it had signed the 34-year-old center and will represent him during his NBA comeback.
Via the agency’s website:
Interperformances is proud to announce that the NBA star Kwame Brown decided to sign with our agency. The #1 overall pick of the 2001 draft is ready for a new life. His comeback can be the road to glory for a team that believes in him. Kwame is back, physically healthy and ready to be the outstanding player he was on several NBA teams.
A great intimidator that can block shots, rebound consistently and explode in devastating dunks. No longer the young man that entered the NBA, Kwame is now an experienced and mature player and man. And he’s back. for the love of the game.
Brown was the first No. 1 draft pick to be selected straight out of high school. He played 12 seasons in the NBA with the Wizards, Lakers, Grizzlies, Pistons, Bobcats, Warriors and 76ers.
Over his 12-year career, Brown averaged 6.6 points and 5.5 rebounds. And although Brown never lived up to the hype that came with being the No. 1 pick, he developed into a decent rotational player. We’ll see if anyone comes calling for his services.
