Malachi Cooper brings instant scoring punch for Southern Wesleyan
In the 2025-26 season, Malachi Cooper has started fast for Southern Wesleyan, averaging 11.0 points in 22.7 minutes while shooting 48.1% from the field and 50.0% from three across his first three games.[1] He looks like a guard who can create offense quickly, attack early in possessions, and give a team a needed shot-making spark; his college debut featured 27 points, showing real upside as a primary scorer.[6] The fit question is mostly about continued consistency from deep and whether his playmaking can keep growing, but the early returns point to a confident, high-impact perimeter piece.[1][6]
