A young basketball camper thought he could defend former Duke point guard Quinn Cook one-on-one earlier this week.
He was wrong.
A quick crossover by Cook at the top of the key sent the camper tumbling backwards and falling to the ground, as Cook calmly finished a layup from the left side of the hoop and trotted back down the court.

To the kid's credit, he hopped right back up after the humiliation while his fellow campers mercilessly cheered Cook from the sideline.
Cook's ball-handling prowess caught the eye of current Blue Devil Grayson Allen on Twitter. Allen and Cook were teammates on Duke's 2014-15 national championship team.

Cook won the NBA Development League Rookie of the Year award last season, and he will have to fight for a spot on an NBA roster this year. At least his handle appears to be as sharp as ever.
