Deke is enjoying the best season of his career, averaging 17.7 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals. He’s a good slasher and cutter that works hard on the glass. Cooper is a steady three-point shooter, but he typically is most effective in the paint. His effort inside helps set the tone as he plays more of a frontcourt role for the War Eagles.

Deke came off the bench against Newton to compiled 10 points, 8 rebounds and 1 steal. He got on the board with a breakaway dunk and saw his other hoops come via a baseline drive, a floater in transition and an And-1 step-through. Cooper is a steady producer on the wing. He is a reliable rebounder and a physical downhill slasher.
