TJ Warren, Lorenzo Brown meet as Suns take on Raptors

Last night, two former NC State stars met on an NBA court when TJ Warren and the Pheonix Suns took on Lorenzo Brown and the Toronto Raptors.

This is the first time this season that two former Pack players have shared a court in the pros.

TJ Warren is on the cusp of being mentioned as a potential NBA All-Star while Lorenzo Brown is doing all he can to stay up with the Raptors.

Unfortunately, in this one, neither guy really had their best game. In fact, Brown only logged 2 minutes on the night, went 0-1 and didn’t put any other stats on the board. Meanwhile, TJ had his second consecutive off-shooting night (5-15) but still managed to pour in 17 points before fouling out.

We really wish we could share with you some highlights of Warren and Brown trading baskets back and forth. That obviously would be a much more entertaining story. But for now, we’ll have to just be happy to see two former Wolfpackers making their dreams come true in the NBA.

As for the game, the Raptors pulled it out 115-109.

On the season, TJ Warren is averaging 18.7 points and 5.6 rebounds while shooting 48% from the floor. On the other side,  Lorenzo Brown really isn’t getting a true opportunity. He’s only playing about 7 minutes per game and has been yo-yoing from the G-League to the NBA.
