When the Phoenix Suns traded up for the No. 41 pick in the second round, many of us thought that they would target a playmaking, ball-handling guard. Instead, they drafted one of, if not the best, shooters in the NBA Draft, Koby Brea.
Born Nov. 11, 2002, Brea comes from a basketball family. His father, Stephen, played professionally in the Dominican Republic, and his godfather, Felipe Lopez, was a first-round pick in the 1998 NBA Draft. Brea is from Washington Heights, New York, and comes to Phoenix with five years of college experience at Dayton for four years and Kentucky last season.
