Former Michigan State basketball big man Carson Cooper is having an impressive start to his professional career in the NBA Summer League. That included another highlight reel play on Monday.
Cooper and the Memphis Grizzlies came up short in Monday's summer league game against the Utah Jazz, but Cooper himself had another strong performance. He finished the game with 10 points and six rebounds -- which was his second straight summer league game where he reached double-digits in points.
One of Cooper's top plays of the game against the Jazz was an alley-oop dunk. There was a turnover that resulted in Cooper having the opportunity to throw down a nice dunk.
You can see the highlight reel play in the embedded video below:
Cooper went unselected in this year's NBA Draft but quickly found a landing spot with the Grizzlies following the draft. He signed a two-way deal with the Grizzlies that'll allow him to also play for their G-League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle.
Cooper and the Grizzlies are set to play the Atlanta Hawks in their next summer league game on Tuesday.
