Eugene Brown set to make season debut for Ohio State vs. Alabama A&M

Junior Ohio State hoops forward Eugene Brown is expected to make his season debut for the Buckeyes Thursday when they take on Alabama A&M.

Brown has missed the early part of the 2022-23 season with a concussion. It was reported earlier in the week that Brown would be available to play against the Bulldogs and confirmed Thursday by CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein.

Ohio State’s Eugene Brown (concussion) is available for today’s game against Alabama A&M, per Chris Holtmann. Has not played this season. Averaged 3.5 PPG last year.

Brown has been a role player throughout his tenure at Ohio State. He plays well in the paint and is a good rebounder, but has very little production on the perimeter and just is not able to bring enough offense for the Buckeyes to start or see amped minutes in years’ past.

Ohio State is 8-3 with wins over Rutgers and Texas Tech, falling to only Duke, San Diego State and North Carolina in overtime. Their battle Thursday against Alabama A&M is their last non-conference game of the regular season.
