Notre Dame alumni and current Idaho Stampede basketball player Jack Cooley looks to be on his way back to the NBA. According to Marc Stein from ESPN, the Utah Jazz is in the process of getting Cooley another 10-day contract.
Hearing that the Utah Jazz are lining up another 10-day deal for @nbadleague rebound machine Jack Cooley
— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) March 15, 2015
Cooley was signed to a 10-day contract back on Feb. 23 with the Jazz. He only appeared in one game during that span posting four points in a win against Denver. Since going back to the NBA D-League Cooley has been on a rebounding tear that probably convinced the Jazz to pull the trigger on a second 10-day contract.
Since returning to the D-League, Jack Cooley has averaged 21 points and 20 boards on 63% shooting. — Ridiculous Upside (@RidicUpside) March 15, 2015
Cooley had a 27 point and 29 rebound night vs. the L.A Defenders the other night. Those 29 boards set the D-League record by the way. Check out the performance below.
