Brady is a sniper with vision, toughness, and a relentless nonstop motor. He has one of the deadliest catch-and-shoot strokes in New England, but Brady is far more than just a perimeter threat, he’s a dynamic offensive weapon who understands spacing, flow, and team rhythm like a savvy vet. What separates Brady from other shooters is his ability to read defenses, find openings without the ball, and knock down shots under pressure while also dishing dimes in the pick-and-roll. He’s crafty, confident, and plays with a cold-blooded edge that coaches can count on. Whether he’s raining threes, finding cutters with elite vision, or diving into a passing lane, Brady brings a polished, high-IQ style to every possession.

This past season established a major part in Brady’s rise, his first year at Brimmer and May. Facing stiffer competition brought the best out of him, elevating his toughness, timing, and overall game. Averaging 10 points and 3 boards per game, he elevated his ability to stay active off-ball and battle for rebounds, all while continuing to develop his defense and physicality. Brady’s consistency in the weight room helped him improve his frame and grit, which he now uses to finish stronger at the rim, defend more effectively, and carve out space in traffic. His offseason focus is speed and explosiveness, making his shot even quicker, his first step more dangerous, and his presence even harder to contain.

Brady will be playing this summer with Team Sims on the UA Rise circuit under Coach Dom Langston. Their mission is to win, compete, and prove they belong among the elite. With live periods in Cincinnati, Atlanta, and Chicago, Brady is excited to put in work and showcase the winning culture that’s been building inside this squad. He’s not chasing highlights building momentum, and he finds it in the underrated moments, like taking a charge and shifting the energy of a game with pure effort.

Heading into his next season at Brimmer and May, Brady is eager to build on the foundation his team laid this year. Injuries may have slowed them down at times, but now the focus is identity, chemistry, and winning. He handles adversity by staying mentally composed, trusting his teammates, and refusing to let one mistake snowball into another. For Brady, the game is about making the next right play and making sure he's always ready to knock it down when the ball finds his hands.

I assess that Brady’s shooting ability, vision, and movement make him a plug-and-play asset for any offense. His floor spacing opens lanes for others, and his feel for the game allows him to impact plays without the ball in his hands. A college program in need of a smart, tough, shot-ready wing with upside would be lucky to land him.

Brady is on a mission. As he continues to grow his physical tools and defensive ability, his combination of shot-making, off-ball IQ, and leadership will elevate him into a significant factor at the next level. Expect his name to keep rising with every live period and every big-time shot he drains under pressure. Stay tuned.
