What Should We Make of Braylon Mullins’ Freshman Season?
About this episode
Braylon Mullins entered UConn with NBA positional size and a reputation as one of the best shooters in his class. The 6'6" wing showed flashes during a solid freshman season, but his 33% shooting from three fell short of expectations as ankle issues disrupted his year.
After considering the 2026 NBA Draft and ultimately returning to UConn, Mullins now has an opportunity to remind scouts why his shooting made him such an intriguing NBA prospect in the first place.
On NBA Draft Junkies Live, Rafael and James discuss how much stock we should put into Mullins' freshman shooting numbers, whether his pre-college track record is more indicative of the shooter he'll eventually become, and what he needs to show as a sophomore to emerge as a potential lottery pick in the 2027 NBA Draft.
