Do you think this branch is recently dead, on its way to avocado heaven or if neither but you think you might know what could be happening what details can i provide that will help you come to a confident conclusion?

Figure this is better than putting my trees life story out there.

Bullet points:

First time growing an avo tree. Got it at around 6ft (early march) its just over 8ft now.

Lost all its leaves during a heat wave in march

Watered it daily for first few weeks unaware of potential root rot that could cause

Fertilized once about 3 weeks ago

Some of the leaves look brownish/purple - not sure if thats an issue

Any suggestions/advice/questions much appreciated!
