      Brea's an interesting quirk in recent UK history.

      Went from a guy I looked at and thought was slow and low-energy to a guy who I thought looked like a pro in several of those games down the stretch. It's almost like he had a come to Jesus moment or something.

        Yeah he really started playing hard on defense and showed off a midrange and floater game nobody knew he had.

          I don't see it happening. We've discussed this a lot in the portal era, but you don't see a ton of evolution from guys his age, and something like "aggression" has more to do with personality than skill. If a guy has talent and ability, you can teach him new skills, but personality changes? Those are much harder. Not sure he's ever going to be the assertive player he'll need to be to succeed, and without that, he's kinda dime-a-dozen where his talents are concerned. Plenty of guys at the next level can do what he can do.

            He did have pretty obscene range. Dude would pull up sometimes from 25 and just knock it down.

            That might travel to the NBA. I mean I doubt it, but it is a marketable skill in the Steph era.
