The decision on a representative was a family affair. Coppenrath's father, George, researched sports agents, consulted with friends and family members and did his best to protect his son from those hoping to take advantage of the potential NBA draft pick. The family announced that they have hired BDA Sports Management to represent Taylor Coppenrath. BDA represents NBA stars Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets and Steve Nash of the Phoenix Suns. The group has also been selected to represent Hakim Warrick of Syracuse and Raymond Felton of North Carolina. Kevin Bradbury, who will serve as Taylor Coppenrath's personal agent at BDA, was impressed with his new client.</div> Source
