Expert Analysis
Byron Xerxes Livsey | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Cooper has gotten better every year. Even when she was out for some time, it was clear that her game had enhanced, both skillfully and mentally. Lake Zurich will be one of the best teams in the state, and with Cooper leading the charge, they have the potential to make a deep run this season.

Beautiful drives to the basket- I’ve not seen anyone with a solution to contain Cooper! And her passing is just as lovely- places the ball perfectly for her teammates! Textbook footwork, puts on a clinic! She’s a stud! (Below on defense)

The offers are piling up, and it is not hard to understand why. Outside of her being a pure athlete, her impact on the game doesn’t always show heavily in the scoring column, but she can fill up every other major category—rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. If you’re a college coach watching her, you’re thinking about what this prospect can become in 1-2 years with the right development team around her. She has a high ceiling and the potential to be a program changer.

Cooper has gotten by with her athleticism and size, but i believe her stepback was actually a blessing in disguise. She has came out this year with a new layer of skills, and her confidence while using them has increased as well. On both sides of the ball she can alter an entire game, and her ability to be effective without the ball is present as well. One of the players that might take an extra leap in a college system.

One of those players who can completely change a game off pure athleticism, however Cooper’s skillset is evident. She can attack from the arc, and knock down shots from that distant as well. Around the rim her size and her explosiveness are key to her being a threat. Wether on the boards or when she’s altering shots, she’s a two way force.

exudes athleticism every time she steps on the court. She has not even skimmed the surface of her immense potential. She displays notable strength in the post and never hesitates to drive. Excelling in both offense and defense, she often emerges victorious in rebound battles.

Coopers athleticism matched with her size are key to her versatility. On the offense side of the floor, she shows a great shot from the mid to behind the arc, great strength in the post, and can get to the rim from both sides. Defensively, she’s aware on the boards, and has solid footwork to defend on the perimeter if needed.

Players with this type of size, agility, coordination and pure athleticism.. are rare, so when you see them you just have to stay locked in. Cooper is all of that and more. She has the potential to be a high caliber three level threat, on top of her being a headache to deal with in the post area. She’s strong on the attack, but smooth on the finish. In transition, out of a set, or a breakdown situation.. Avery will find a way to be impactful out of every possession. High potential for a kid who is just scratching the surface on what she can be.

is everything you want in a basketball player. The unique combination of athleticism, power, and agility is extraordinary for being a sophomore. She is swift and nimble and almost buoyant on the court. She has a smooth jump shot and can knock down 3s. She can swipe the ball, race down the court, with defenders on her, and convert to a graceful layup-completely undeterred. Her speed eludes her defenders and her impact on the court is a value to her teammates. She already has multiple offers and colleges will be fighting to get her on the roster.

Physically.. Cooper has everything you need. The strength, size, mobility and agility is off the charts. (State Finalist for hurdles last year). Offensively, the tools she currently works with get the job done. She can knock down the 3, finish around the rim and solid vision and awareness as well. With a couple D1 offers already coming in.. the trajectory for Avery is sky high.
