 The 28-year-old, 6-foot-9 power forward and his bride exchanged vows
before 150 guests. Players from across the league were on hand, and
Luke Walton from the Los Angeles Lakers, one of Cook's former
teammates, was best man.Velasquez wore a gown by Priscilla of
Boston Platinum Collection and $75,000 worth of Adorn Brides
jewelry.
"I wasn't nervous at all until right before the ceremony and then
I saw her and just knew that it was all good," Cook said.
Cook, who was traded to the Houston Rockets in a trade-deadline
deal, recently exercised his option to remain with the team rather
than go into the free agent market.
In six NBA seasons with the Lakers, Magic and Rockets, Cook, who
is noted for his shooting range, averaged six points on 44.9 percent
shooting, making 39.4 of his 3-pointers.
