Just when it seemed as though the Phoenix Suns were all in on stacking the interior, they proved to value spacing, as well. The Suns selected center Khaman Maluach at No. 10 overall, traded for big man Mark Williams, and then picked power forward Rasheer Fleming at No. 31.
With the No. 41 overall selection, the Suns committed to improving the perimeter by adding Kentucky Wildcats wing Koby Brea—arguably the best shooter in the 2025 NBA Draft.

Phoenix is in the midst of a summer of significant change. They've already traded Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets, parted with head coach Mike Budenholzer, and acquired promising young scorer Jalen Green and defensive stalwart Dillon Brooks.
With the draft-night acquisitions of big men who can help solidify the interior, the Suns appeared ready to enter a new era of sustainable growth.
By prioritizing Brea in the second round, Phoeinx has doubled down on a vision of building a perimeter flush with foor-spacing talent. Devin Booker is now on pace to be flanked by the likes of Bradley Beal, Brea, Brooks, and Green in what could be a high-octane offense.
Brea may not be expected to make an immediate impact as a second-round draft pick, but he has the ability to turn that narrative on its head.
