He's a really good college player. Not sure if his limited game will transfer to the NBA very well or not though? That's what people have been saying on here.
Niang is playing in the NBA and he's not even close to as athletic as Cook is. But Niang has REAL basketball skills, not just the ability to dunk like Cook mostly has. Niang can shoot from 3, he has good back to the basket moves, he has great court vision, great passing skills, can handle the ball fairly well, etc. Cook lacks in most of these areas. He's a man amongst boys 5 ft from the basket, no doubt, but not much else there.
