Brown was a minor contributor for the Rockets during the 2016-17 campaign,
helping serve as a backup to Patrick Beverley at point guard with an average of
2.5 points over 4.9 minutes in 25 games. He should play a similar role after
signing a one-year extension and while Beverley is no longer with the Rockets,
Chris Paul was added in his place, which should leave little to no minutes for
Brown.
