Former Dayton guard Koby Brea committed to Kentucky basketball back on May 1st. The sharp-shooting wing was a big catch for Mark Pope and his staff, and is a great fit for the offense the Wildcats will run.
On Tuesday, a number of new Wildcats pulled their names out of the NBA draft. Brea was one of them. He tested the draft process, but as expected, decided to return to college and complete his transfer to Kentucky.

Brea was one of the elite shooters in all of college basketball last season, shooting 50% from three-point range. He averaged 11.1 points and 3.8 rebounds per game for the Fliers, coming off the bench for the most part.
Pope, as well as fans of the Wildcats, will be happy to have Brea on the roster for the 2024-25 season. They want to shoot a lot of three-pointers, and few do that as well as Koby Brea.
