College career

Born in Chicago, Illinois, Brazelton initially played basketball for the Rich East High School, but transferred to the rival Rich Central High School during his senior year. He led the latter team to a championship in the Big Dipper tournament and was named as the most valuable player of the tournament.

After graduation, Brazelton played for the Missouri State University-West Plains basketball team, transferring to the Western Kentucky University basketball team his junior year. Missouri State University-West Plains participated in the NJCAA sports and Western Kentucky – in NCAA Division I sports.

Brazelton went undrafted at the 2008 NBA Draft. He then played with the Utah Jazz's NBA Summer League team, appearing in two games and averaging 12 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

Professional career

Failing to impress the NBA scouts, Brazelton moved to Europe and signed with a Latvian team BK Ventspils playing in the EuroChallenge tournament. Although he led the team from the very start, his efforts were not enough to carry the team to the Top 16 phase of the tournament. Shortly after the tournament loss to Cajasol Sevilla, Brazelton moved to Asseco Prokom. Playing in the Euroleague, he averaged 3.7 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game, shooting a horrific 26% from the field. In August 2009, he re-signed with Prokom for one more season. He was released from the team in November 2009.

In January 2011, he moved to Germany and played for Eisbären Bremerhaven.

During the 2011–12 season, Brazelton played in the NBA Development League with Erie BayHawks. He averaged 9.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game, playing 29 minutes a game and shooting 39% from the field.

In August 2012, Brazelton once again moved to Germany and signed with Nürnberger BC. In November, he moved to BC Odessa of Ukraine.

In April 2013, he signed with the Iranian club Petrochimi. In August, he moved to the Lithuanian club BC Nevėžis. In January 2014, he signed with the Belorussian team Tsmoki-Minsk. In April 2014, he returned to Lithuania and signed with BC Neptūnas for the rest of the season.

In August 2014, he signed a one-year deal with STB Le Havre of the French LNB Pro A.

On July 2, 2015, Brazelton signed a two-year deal with Torku Konyaspor of the Turkish Basketball Super League. In December 2015, he parted ways with Konyaspor after averaging 10.7 points and 5 assists per game. On December 19, 2015, he signed with a two-year contract with BCM Gravelines of the LNB Pro A.
