Sixers vs Cooper's All Stars

On Thursday, 12 November our Adelaide 36ers will take on Cooper's All Stars at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in our first hit out of the NBL21 season. In a collaboration with Mix 102.3's Jodie and Soda and OTR, Cooper will lead his own All Stars Team onto Brett Maher Court.

12-year old Cooper was born without a fibula in his left leg, a condition which has led to various complications, especially over the last few years.

Following unsuccessful and painful leg lengthening surgery, Cooper and his family had to make a decision; undergo more painful surgeries with no guarantees on outcome, or have the leg amputated.

Cooper decided to have the leg amputated declaring he wasn't losing a leg, he was gaining his life.

Since Adelaide 36ers owner Grant Kelley invited Cooper to bring an All Stars team to play the Sixers on Monday morning, Cooper has gone from wearing his prosthetic leg for 15 minutes per day to 7-8 hours.

Listen to how it has all unfolded here:
