Ace Bailey’s agent, Omar Cooper, is taking some serious heat on social media, having already taken plenty of criticism ahead of the NBA Draft.
Bailey was a first-round pick by the Utah Jazz this week following an unusual pre-draft process that saw him skip workouts, with Cooper believed to have demanded commitment from teams.
It’s also reported that Cooper requested payments for on-camera interviews during the season and even canceled a scheduled workout with the Philadelphia 76ers.
These moves are all thought to have hurt the player’s draft stock, although he was ultimately taken at No. 5 overall.
An odd post from Cooper has since resurfaced online, drawing plenty of criticism, as fans have suggested it’s quite immature for a grown man.

Another post has delved into Cooper’s “seedy past” and cites a report from Kevin Armstrong of NJ Advanced Media claiming that he was charged with attempted murder and possession with intent to distribute cocaine on or near school property in the 90s.
Cooper served six months in prison on the cocaine charge, with the others dismissed.
He was also indicted for possession of a machine gun and a black short-clip Uzi in 2003.
The most troubling part about this is that Omar Cooper isn’t even a certified agent and isn’t registered with the NBPA.
Also of note, he is the father of Sharife Bailey, a former Auburn star who averaged 20.2 points and 8.1 assists but slipped all the way to No. 48 in the draft following first-round projections and ended up in the G League.
Sharife now plays overseas, with his father’s involvement believed to be the most significant factor.

LSU Tigers star Angel Resse has been making a lot of headlines after her match against the Iowa Hawkeyes. Reese has a unique fashion for her matches, she wears leggings on only one of her legs and she recently revealed the secret of doing so.
Reese lost her recent game against the Iowa Hawkeyes which left the fans wondering if she would continue with LSU or declare for the WNBA draft. Those questions have also been answered by Reese in her recent collaboration with Vogue.
Why does Angel Reese wear one legging attire?
Angel Reese wears only one legging as a part of her one-court attire and the fans have grown curious about it. Many people speculated that it was part of a superstition that Reese followed, however, that is not the case. The LSU star has herself revealed the reason for the unique dressing choice and it may surprise a lot of people.
“I had surgery two years back on my shin. I have a rod in my leg… I cover the scar on one, and then the two players that I admire, Te’a Cooper and A’ja Wilson, also wear it, too. So it is swag. But I have used it to cover my scar,” said Angel Reese. She revealed that she had surgery on her leg and had a scar on it. She wears the leggings to hide that scar and at the same time as a swag fashion accessory.
Angel Reese declares for WNBA draft with Vogue photoshoot
After the Tigers failed to stand up against Caitlin Clark and the Hawkeyes the fans were left wondering if the LSU star Angel Reese would declare for the upcoming NBA draft. Reese has answered those questions with a beautiful photoshoot in collaboration with Vogue. Reese did a photo shoot with the brand and announced that she would be declaring for the WNBA draft.
Reese expressed her thoughts about the decision on her official X (formerly Twitter) account. “Making my announcement with VOGUE was ICONIC. In the new world that I am stepping into, just believe in me, trust in me, and give me time to learn and grow!” said Reese in the post. She thanked her supporters for their support and love and also asked them to trust her in her new journey.
