Norwalk High School's Jaylen Brown is this week's News 12 Connecticut Scholar Athlete, presented by Colonial Toyota.

The senior student may be small, but he's putting up big numbers on and off the basketball court.

Brown, who stands at 5 foot, 9 inches has aspirations of playing basketball overseas.

He has recently scored a 50-point performance in an overtime win against Staples last week.

He says freshman year opened his eyes to how important academics are to the success of young athletes.
