My guess is that is why you like Brown more than most folks on this board. Because despite his red flags, he probably has higher upside than most of these guards we are talking about.
Another point on Burries, he is a year older than the rest of these guys. I don't know how big of a deal that is, but it seems like its at least some hit on his upside.
This is why I keep coming back to Wagler. This guy was not a PG in high school, did not get recruited as a PG (he barely got recruited at all) and didn't start the year as a PG. What you are seeing started mid season when their PG went down. Given that physically he is a late bloomer, and that he has only been playing the PG position for half a season, its not hard to imagine significant upside.
Yes, I think Brown has "best Guard in this draft" upside. His medicals are the only thing that give me pause at the moment. To be transparent, I also think he has higher bust potential as well...
