The Los Angeles Lakers are signing center Carson Cooper to a two-way contract, according to HoopsHype's Michael Scotto. To make room for Cooper on their two-way roster, the Lakers waived big man Lawson Lovering. Cooper went undrafted out of Michigan State in June before spending time with the Memphis Grizzlies earlier this season.
Cooper was waived by Memphis over the weekend to clear room for Richie Saunders, having made one three-minute appearance for the Grizzlies. As a college senior in 2025/26, the 22-year-old averaged 11.5 points and 7.1 rebounds per game for Michigan State. He joins Chris Manon and Arthur Kaluma as Los Angeles' two-way players.
