From the heart-wrenching loss in college basketball to being crowned the number one pick in the 2025 NBA draft by the Dallas Mavericks, Cooper's story is one of resilience and determination. However, his path to success is fraught with challenges, particularly due to the controversial management of the Mavericks and the shadow of the beloved former player, Luca Donuch, looming large over the team.
