Missouri State

Cook had a sensational week for Missouri State, leading the Bears to a  2-0 ledger with two memorable performances. He was dominant down the stretch to lead the Bears to a 71-69 victory over Murray State on Tuesday, scoring scored 9 of his 15 points in the final 93 seconds of the game to help pace the win. In fact, three of Cook's scores in the final minute-and-a-half restored the lead for MSU, while his two free throws with 3.7 seconds remaining put the Bears up 71-66 and essentially put the game out of reach. He topped that effort with his first double-double of the season in Friday's win over MVSU, posting game-highs with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Cook was 7-of-11 from the field in Friday's game with 4 assists, helping him match career highs in both rebounds and assists in the win. Cook has scored in double figures in nine straight games for MSU, a career-best, while knocking down multiple 3-pointers in 8-of-10 games this season and six straight.
