Daequan Cook Was Supposed to be The Next Superstar! What Happened? Stunted Growth

- Today’s feature had a very important decision to make after his freshman season was done at Ohio State. Take the money and roll the dice on a professional career in the NBA, or stay in school another year allowing his game to develop further, giving him the chance at a better spot in the draft, and likely a better chance to succeed developing a bit further with the keys to the program and experience. He left Ohio State with both feet in the draft early on in the process, after his stock had plummeted from possible top 10-lottery pick going into Ohio State ranked above Russell Westbrook in a loaded high school class, the #2 shooting guard in the country, to a sinking draft stock after struggling with consistency during the second half of the college season, ending in the worst way on a national stage scoring 2 points and playing just 9 minutes in the championship game, benched to close out the game. Leaving high school Daequan Cook had most the tools that made a good NBA shooting guard. He was athletic, usually going above the rim for finishes assisted or unassisted, had break out speed on the wing or handling the ball on the fast break, and he could shoot the lights out once his feet were set. He was just about ideal for the league, but for these reasons things didn’t play out as hoped. Daequan Cook Was Supposed to be The Next Superstar! What Happened? Stunted Growth

You almost got 100k, great work stunted growth
Loved getting buckets with Cook back in 2K. Straight shooter.
I thought I was the only one
2k13
He had a pretty jumper. Thought he would become 3 & D starter
2K legend you couldnt miss with him
He would have a consistent place in the league today if he was drafted during this time
Isaiah Joe 2.0
@@RonnyTheGamer 🎯
🙄
When I lived in OKC I used to see DC ALL the time. The game wouldn’t even be finished yet and him & James Harden would be at the club 😂 shit was hilarious. He was cool af tho
Oh shit.
Stunted growth Scoop Jardine
Damn forgot about Cook. He was nice as hell at Ohio and his first 3 years in the league 👌🏽
Y'all people got the memory of a goldfish. what are you talking about he was nice his first 3 years at Miami?
He averaged under 10 points per game his first 3 years in the nba
And he wasn't nice at Ohio State either the last month he was horrible as the guy mentioned in the video and averaged under 10 points per game as a freshman.🤦🏿♂️
@@pp3k3jamail yea goofy that’s what I said! He playing SG behind Dwade how much Pt you think he was gonna get?
I work with a very close childhood of Deaquan"s and he's always telling me stories of how they grew up rough in Dayton. Him & DC really made it out the mud💪🏾
Yup people know bout Cleveland but Ohio has A LOT of cities that's rough Cincinnati, Columbus, Toledo, Dayton, Youngstown. Akron etc.
@@johndavis9321 Agreed John, They know LeBron, but never heard of Esteban Weaver. And he has his own documentary. Older fans kno of him, but his basketball lore over this area has since faded......
I played against him in high school and he gave me 30. His team with Oden and Conley killed us. I had 15 though. Cook was nice
Can you do Wayne Simien?🙏
James Bouknight is a good stunted growth to do
Do one for Patrick McCaw, Jerry West’s golden boy saying teams will be “sorry they didn’t take him” been out of the league since 2021 and ghosted the Warriors due to lack of PT and didn’t get much elsewhere.
Dude has four rings though. 3 in the NBA. Sign him and you know you are winning it all. So West found a winner. West biggest disappointment was Jerome Robinson
@@lukesmith9692 Dude don’t play, he thought he was better than he was.
Bro was a beast from the 3 with OKC on 2K, I definitely remember that
Aww man. With his production as a Freshman, I thought he would be the next Ray Allen
Facts
That team was loaded. He benefited from teams doubling Oden leav8ng him open alot. He should have stayed and developed for another year or two
@@beyondbeleef1013 na real talk he was scoring more when Oden was injured and he was our leading scorer for most of the year
@@WakethBakethI didn't, I wasn't impressed with him in college. The next Ray Allen is a hilarious comparison. The fact that you thought he would be the next Ray Allen I have to question your basketball IQ 🤦🏿♂️
I didn't, I wasn't impressed with him in college. The next Ray Allen is a hilarious comparison. The fact that you thought he would be the next Ray Allen I have to question your basketball IQ 🤦🏿♂️
He was dubbed the next Ray Allen !! I remember this !!!
I remember Cook on the vintage OKC team, he had a corner clip 🔥🔥💯
❤ thank you stunted growth for another great video
Yo yo, good work my man. you should do deshawn thomas from ohio state as well
Bro was the absolute truth at Ohio state always wondered what happened to him
Hooped with cook a few weeks ago in Dayton Ohio, he’s still nice for sure
Where they be hoppin at in the city?
This channel is awesome. I love remembering the forgotten. Especially the college stars.
Appreciate the great content 🙏🤌🤘
@Stunted Growth Salute! MAN THIS BEAT IS A CLASSIC!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⚡
Cook would have a long career if he was drafted this year in this era! 💯💯 salute to my dawg ! Solid as they come #WolverineGreat #GemCityLegend
Hope is everything is OK. Love your channel 👏👏👏 Hang in there and stay safe
Next up do- Luke Garza. Kofi cockburn. Cheick Diallo. Angel delgado. Herb pope. Wayne Turner.
Fun fact: his uncle plays Douda on The Chi.
Dam they do kinda look alike
I don’t know if you have but I think you should do Jodi Meeks he was a beast in college
Yea Meeks used to get buckets at will
This dude was legit he played for Benfica here in Portugal.
Miles Simon please g
Good one!!!
Flip
Murray was nice handle was crazy
Crazy how Mike Conley is the best player mentioned in this video.
Also hope you're okay, bro. We'll be waiting for you when you see about your family and make sure they're good
Russ! Brush stop
Frankly he was an early example of a undersized swingman. More of a SF than a SG. Didn't get many touches. Kindoff like Eddie Johnson but shorter and with inconsistent shot. In Miami he had his best playing alongside Wade. To his credit in OKC he had to compete with Durant and Harden for playing time.
JT we need one on Chris Lykes. Plus, please re-post the videos for Frank Mason III and Quinn Cook.
Hey you should do stunted team growth. You’re first team should be the Cleveland Cavaliers from 2003-2010
Wassup SG! Please can you make a video on Zhaire Smith? I'm a big fan from Paris 🇲🇫🤝🏿
Getting drafted to the Heat with DWade didn't help. He was never going to be anything other than a back-up 2 there, which probably made the coaches have him double down on being a spot-up guy instead of trying to invest the time to develop him.
Gotta be Top 10 born in Dayton, OH residents EVER🤷🏽♂️
Have you done one on Melo Trimble
It’s crazy because JJ Reddick made a career with the same skillset.
JJ Reddick would dribble the ball more, help the PG to run the offense etc he was a pure SG then with the years his shot selection was improved and his shot became more consistent.
@@user-vw1vf5cw7d Look again. He almost never put the rock on the floor. He put the ball on the floor more at Duke than he ever did in the League. I was a season ticket holder for the Sixers I saw it with my own eyes.
@@christiangriffin4452 okay you should be right then ! It's another thing to watch some games from a screen and a different thing to watch each game a few feet from the players
@@user-vw1vf5cw7dcoming out of high school you would have banked on him bring a combo guard with a strap. He was like that. He was the leading scorer on a aau team with Oden Conley mcroberts and Eric Gordon
He's perfect for the modern era, just shoot threes and play some defense
Can you do damarcus croaker next ???
Damn I remember bro when I was a youngin
can we get a tyler ulis and emeka okafor vid please
🏀🏀🏀
Can you do earl manigault
🔥
I remember him playing in High School. He was a good shooter. I think he should’ve stayed in college for another year.
Would you consider doing a stunted growth on the All-Star game or all star weekend as a whole.
U gotta do Ricky Davis
Could you do earl manigault
Lol he wasn't supposed to be a superstar at all. He was like the third option on his college team. Even in college no one thought of him as a superstar.
Facts. I literally never heard anyone ever mention DC and superstar in the same sentence. I know this is just content however can we not make everybody a failed superstar to dramatize their alleged failure because outside of him and his circle nobody thought he was or was going to become a superstar.
You think you could do one on Sem ojeleye he just fall off the face of the earth I feel like he should be on a team rn?🤔
Shoutout #937
Bruh. Do Gary neal and hami diallo
He never developed a handle or cared to play defense…he was an athletic shooter tho
You gotta do I a stunted growth story on Kurt Heinrich & tyrus Thomas
He did one on tyrus Thomas
I did I must have missed I'm bout check it out
It’s hard to be a 6’3” shooting guard and arise to star status in the NBA
Austin Rivers should’ve stayed an extra year as well.
Since you so smart I love your work first and foremost please do a person I know his name is William Buford!
Anthony Randolph would be a good one for this.
Do Kay Felder!
Nobody really thought he was going to be too much anyway
Not true at all
This is a hot take try making a stundted growth video about j cross over i know his elite and multiple time 6th man but his ceiling was a super star player
Also david lee, al jefferson and leon powe are good stunted growth videos
Can we get a stunted growth Josh McRoberts
That’s my brother on god
Do Alterique Gilbert for a stunted growth episode ❗️
Based on this assignment a question. Is it all his fault for his own development in other areas? Or the trainers, coaches etc had a hand in that?
naw, u reach here. He was a great shooter a valuable role player from the bench. Nobody saw more in him
Day 2 of asking for jamario moon
Y’all are horrible at evaluating talent smh
Jesus Christ is king❤
