#Illini Kofi Cockburn played for the Hiroshima Dragonflies this season, who went 31-29. Cockburn averaged 17 PPG, 9.7 rebounds and shot 60% from the field. Kofi, who's just 26 years old, can likely be a dominant international professional for YEARS. I really wish he was in the NBA, but when Cockburn was leaving the college, the league doesn't value the old-school Shaq-types like they used to. Many centers can shoot threes, be good passers and defend in space more. If Cockburn stayed at Illinois -- at the verge of the NIL explosion -- he could've played for two more seasons and made a lot of cash. But after leaving, Underwood adjusted his roster, finding centers who shoot threes and pass the ball -- Ivisic and Hawkins. When Kofi returned to Illinois to see his number honored, Underwood said Kofi was really happy. And the only thing he wanted in life: was to make enough money to buy his mother a house. By thriving internationally, Kofi has made enough cash. And he bought his mom a house in Texas. "It was a dream come true," Cockburn told me.
