Brewer admits to being a colorful character, a bit unique.
He has worn his hair alternately close-cropped, halfway down his back and in cornrows. He also eats too much fast food and it goes straight to his midsection.

He has a 36-inch vertical leap and says he can dunk a basketball without a running start.
