cooper picking up the points hundred percent my rookie of the year
It’s crazy that he used to be a woman. Those trans men can play
Good game; wish that they could have won it. He will do wonders and improve game by game. The stamina of this team needs to improve; it's okay climbing back up soon. Believe!
Why cooper not pass na ball to open Klay Thompson on 3 points area
This is just unbelievable — truly one of a kind.
42 points. No one in history has ever done this at 18 years old.
Not LeBron, not Kobe — Cooper is the first.
An absolutely unreal performance.
And look at the rest of the stat line: two blocks, for example.
He works on both ends of the floor, defense and offense.
And we have to talk about his left hand — game after game it keeps impressing me.
I can’t stop being amazed, it’s like he’s ambidextrous.
Only 18 years old, give him the rookie of the year
Youngest player in NBA history to score 40 points
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🙏⚾️。
We gotta move on from Luka's trade. Dallas is blessed again with a generational player. In a couple of years, he will be the new face of the Mavs. Let's go Coop!
Mavs' bio organic weapon is officially unleashed
those fans that left to laker nation with Luka stay on that side and dont come back 👍
Coops making history now his better than Luka
