Keandre Cook signed with the Charlotte Hornets after going undrafted in the 2020 NBA Draft.

Keandre Cook was named to two All-Missouri Valley Conference teams during his career at Missouri State. During his senior year, Cook averaged 14.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game.

Cook is 6 feet, 5 inches tall, and has great length. He is good at the catch and shoot and will knock down an open shot. Cook shot 42% from three during his senior year, up from 37% during his junior year.

Down the stretch, Missouri State put the ball in Cook’s hands. He is not afraid of the moment; he has the clutch gene. If Cook can capitalize on that and build the other parts of his game, he should find a spot on the bench of an NBA team.
