He moves really well offensively, allowing him to be a very active part of the offense.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->

He's a long athlete that can finish above the rim with ease. He's dangerous off the wing in transition. Nweke knows how to fill a lane and make himself available for the pass in the open floor.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->

He might transfer to the next level as a 3, but I'm putting him here because of the matchup nightmare he's be for Cass Tech if a big 4 was covering him. Cooper is an exciting above the rim finisher and he gets off the ground in a hurry. He's very comfortable working out of the corner where he could draw a post player away from the rim and attack.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->

The talk is that he and star point guard [player_tooltip player_id='1140922' first='Chas' last='Lewless'] play well together and that could lead to a ton of success. Coffey is powerful on the boards and can play with and through contact. He's a high percentage scorer that should get some good looks at the rim this season.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /-->
