Dana Altman might be in line to pull of the rare ‘re-commit’ on Friday. Compass Prep (Ariz.) star Mookie Cook tells On3’s Joe Tipton he’ll be making his college choice on Friday.

The one-time Oregon commit could potentially commit to Oregon for a second time on Friday.

Following his decision to open his recruitment back up, most felt like the 6-foot-7, 200-pounder might head to the G-League next. However it looks likely he’ll re-commit to the Ducks and Dana Altman on Friday.

Cook is the No. 12 ranked player in the 2023 class. He’s originally from the state of Oregon despite the move to Compass Prep.

The Ducks currently have a pair of 2023 commitments in Kwame Evans Jr and Jackson Shelstad. That class currently ranks as the No. 3 class in the country per On3.

Cook Scouting Summary

“Mookie Cook has all the tools. At 6-foot-8 he has the positional size. The broad shoulders and long arms showcase a projectable frame. Cook is a functional athlete and he has a smooth release on his jump shot with range. The question mark with Cook is his consistency. He seems to get lost in the shuffle a good amount, not imposing his will on the flow of the game. Cook has a tendency to settle for jump shots. He has the dimensions and physical traits to be a good team defender. This upcoming summer will be a big one in the development of Cook figuring out who and what he is as a prospect and player. The tools are there, the upside is still immense.” – Jamie Shaw, On3 National Recruiting Analyst
