Duke fans used to Quinn Cook's intensity might be shocked at the Washington native's new mood after the senior captured his first national championship April 6.
Cook's close friend and mentor Nolan Smith—another former Blue Devil star and national champion—posted a video on Instagram Tuesday of Cook pretending to be J Cole at a mall with two girls.
Both Smith and Cook appear to be enjoying some time off before figuring out what the future holds. Cook is ranked No. 84 by DraftExpress among NBA Draft prospects and Smith last played for the Delaware 87ers in the NBA D-League. The combo guard suffered a serious knee injury and is currently recovering, though he seems to be in good spirits after watching his close friend follow in his footsteps and lead Duke to a fifth national title.
