Cooper ended Monday's 123-118 loss to Houston with 21 points (8-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and three assists in 17 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Cooper erupted for a season-high 21 points in the loss, giving the coaching staff something to think about. The Wizards will be shorthanded Tuesday against Orlando, which could give Cooper another extended look, but it's worth mentioning that Trae Young (knee) is targeting a return Thursday against Utah.

Cooper ended Sunday's 129-112 loss to the Hornets with nine points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 22 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Although he mostly played for the G League's Capital City Go-Go during the first half of the campaign, Cooper is carving out a solid role for the parent club. Over his last seven appearances, Cooper has averaged 12.3 points, 4.4 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.1 three-pointers in 25.8 minutes per game.

EDGE Analysis

Cooper had 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 29 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 127-113 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
One game after scoring a career-high 18 points against the Pistons, Cooper came through with another strong performance from the second unit for the shorthanded Wizards. The second-year guard has played at least 13 minutes in five straight games, but his role will shrink once the likes of Kyshawn George (knee) and Tre Johnson (ankle) are cleared to return.

Cooper accumulated 18 points (8-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists across 34 minutes during Thursday's 126-117 win over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Cooper logged a season-high 34 minutes on a night in which the Wizards were thin across the board. He needed only 12 attempts from the field to tack on 18 points, marking the first time in nine games that he's scored in double figures. This kind of role isn't expected to last for Cooper, who will soon sit behind the likes of Tre Johnson (ankle) and D'Angelo Russell (illness/recently traded).

Cooper (calf) won't play in Thursday's game against Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Cooper will miss a third consecutive contest due to a strained right calf. The 24-year-old guard has exclusively played in garbage time this season, so his absence shouldn't have much of an impact. His next chance to play will come Saturday against the Hawks.
