After four years at Dayton, Brea helped blaze the path at Kentucky in Mark Pope's first year at the helm. At 6'7", the guard averaged 12 pts per game last season, shooting at a 47% clip from the field and 44% from the 3-point line.
The sharpshooter took over many games. But his 23-point performance, draining a career-high seven 3s against the Florida Gators, is a standout night, and a great example of just how volatile Brea's shooting prowess can be.

"The ball finds me. I have a lot of unselfish guys on this team that are willing to make the right pass, and I'm gonna keep shooting it"
