Charlotte continues its collecting of skilled, high-feel role players, poaching Braylon Mullins from a winning program with a track record of developing NBA talents. Braylon Mullins missed the early portion of the season due to injury, but he has made a solid impression since. He fits a valued archetype as a bombs-away shooter who is also much more than a 3-point specialist.
Mullins’ primary value to UConn so far has, in fact, been his shooting. He gets up a lot of 3s, comfortable firing on the move and under duress. But he’s also a bursty athlete, able to get downhill against closeouts and finish with flair in the paint. He’s somewhat limited in terms of playmaking for others right now, but Mullins’ overall feel and activity level, on both ends, bodes well. He can join Kon Knueppel, Sion James, and fellow Husky Liam McNeeley in Charlotte’s growing brigade of young marksmen.
