7 non-Kentucky related players John Calipari should target to rebuild Arkansas' roster
Shooting Guard
Koby Brea- Dayton
Season | PTS | FG% | 3FG% | FT% | REB | AST | BLK | STL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2023-24 | 11.1 | 51.2 | 49.8 | 87.5 | 3.8 | 1.2 | 0.3 | 0.5 |
Another guard Arkansas should look at is Koby Brea. Just like Jeremy Roach, he's a fifth-year senior with an NCAA Tournament appearance under his belt.
Before the 2023-24 season, Brea was an average three-point shooter, knocking down 38.4 percent of his shots. But in his senior year, he developed into a dangerous sharpshooter. With over 200 shot attempts, Brea averaged 49.8 from downtown and, from the field, he averaged 51.2 shooting last season.
One of his most exciting stats is his turnover rate. Last season, he gave up only .7 turnovers a game, but in his career, he averages .8. He's not a player who dribbles a lot, but when he needs space or finds a lane to the basket, he's capable of putting the ball on the floor.
Arkansas is already one of the many teams reaching out to the talented transfer, per Jamie Shaw of On3Sports.
