01The story of the nightRoster SpotCooper is back in Washington for 2026-27, wearing No.

Cooper is back in Washington for 2026-27, wearing No. 13 at guard. He is 25 years old, out of Auburn, with 2 seasons of NBA experience, and he stands 6-0 and 176 pounds. Last season he played 41 games for Washington, all off a rotation role rather than as a starter, logging 17.1 minutes a night. He is a pure lead guard by build and usage, someone Washington leaned on to run possessions in shorter bursts rather than carry a heavy minutes load. With the opener still ahead, Cooper's spot in the backcourt picture for 2026-27 carries over directly from the role he held last season.

02Last Season By the NumbersIn 41 games last season, Cooper averaged 8.1 points, 2.1 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 17.1 minutes, with 0.4 steals,…

In 41 games last season, Cooper averaged 8.1 points, 2.1 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 17.1 minutes, with 0.4 steals, 0.1 blocks and 1.5 turnovers a night. He shot 51.4 percent from the field, 38.2 percent from three and 83.3 percent from the foul line, numbers that add up to a 60.9 true shooting mark. His usage rate sat at 19.7 percent, and his plus-minus for the season was -4.5. That is an efficient shooting season across all three levels for a guard who did not have a huge offensive workload, with the three-point and free-throw numbers standing out as the most reliable part of his game.
