Height: 6'5"

Weight: 195 lbs.

Position: SG

Age: 22

Comparison: Jordan Crawford/Josh Howard

Brooks needs to work on his shooting and his ability to get his teammates involved, but he definitely has a ton of skill.

You can't help but be impressed by Brooks' college numbers. As a senior playing in the Big East, he averaged 24.6 points and seven rebounds a game while shooting 48 percent from the field.

He's a little undersized for his position, but his length should help him overcome that. He has a crazy 7'1" wingspan.

A few weeks ago, many experts thought Brooks might not even get drafted this year. But he's been soaring up the draft boards lately.

World-renowned trainer Tim Grover has been working with Brooks and has compared him to Kobe Bryant.

Minnesota can definitely upgrade at shooting guard, and Brooks seems like a great high-risk, high-reward pick.
