Even though the Kentucky Wildcats might have a number of players vying for a spot in the late second round, Koby Brea might be the only one to be named.
Other names, like as Lamont Butler and Amari Williams, might be selected in the draft but later be selected to join a summer league team for different reasons.
Brea is a rising star who demonstrated his abilities at the highest collegiate level after leaving Dayton to play for the Wildcats this past season. Brea was an important member of one of the top programs in the SEC, and the league had an exceptionally successful season.
The senior shooter did well enough to be included in ESPN’s most recent mock draft.
According to Jeremy Woo and Jonathan Givony, Brea is selected by the Indiana Pacers at No. 54. It would be ideal for Brea to establish himself at the NBA level because the squad already has a number of playmakers.
In addition to shooting a conference-leading 43.5% from beyond the arc, 47% from the field, and 91.4% from the free-throw line, the 22-year-old Brea had the best season of his five-year NCAA career with Kentucky, where he played all four games before the Flyers.
In the end, he averaged 11.6 points per contest. In his final season with Dayton, Brea got close to 50% to 49.8%.
