After signing with the Wiz towards the middle of March, Cooks hasn’t seen much time on the court. However, his minutes have picked up over the last four games, with the team focused on getting some of their young talent run in order to evaluate them in real-time. His 38 minutes were the most he’s played, and the rookie out of Winthrop was able to match his career-high in points (10) and set a new career mark for himself in rebounds with 14.

Xavier Cooks is set to sign with the Washington Wizards after the NBL Finals.

Fantasy Impact

Cooks, who is the MVP of the National Basketball League, is set to sign with the Wizards when the NBL Finals get over next week. He likely will just be a depth piece at first, but he will have an opportunity to earn himself some real playing time in Washington's rotation.
