Derek Vincent Cooke Jr. (born August 23, 1991) is an American professional basketball player who last played for the Pistoia Basket 2000 of the Lega Basket Serie A (LBA). He played three years of Division I college basketball for Wyoming.
Cooke attended Friendly High School in Fort Washington, Maryland, where he was a wide receiver on the football team and did not play basketball. An NCAA qualifier after graduating, he decided to take a year off from school and also hit a growth spurt, before enrolling at Cloud County Community College to play basketball.
Cooke spent one year at Cloud County CC. During his freshman season, he helped the Thunderbirds to a 25–8 overall record. Cloud County went 11–5 in the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference and advanced to the semifinals of the NJCAA Division I Region VI Tournament. Cooke notched team highs of 8.4 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 55 percent from the floor to go with 6.0 points and nearly one steal per game.
In 2012, Cooke transferred to Wyoming. During his senior season, Cooke averaged 8.1 points and 5.8 rebounds while helping the Cowboys reach the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2002.
After going undrafted in the 2015 NBA draft, on June 25, 2015, Cooke signed with the Rethymno Cretan Kings of the Greek Basket League. However, he parted ways with the club in late October after appearing in just three games.
On November 2, 2015, he was acquired by the Bakersfield Jam of the NBA Development League.
In July 2016, Cooke joined the Phoenix Suns for the 2016 NBA Summer League. On September 25, 2016, he signed with the Suns, but was waived on October 10. On October 31, 2016, he was acquired by the Northern Arizona Suns as an affiliate player of Phoenix.
