DeMarcus Cousins is slated for free agency next summer, and no one has a great pulse on whether he’ll leave the New Orleans Pelicans, to whom he was traded last February. But this uncertainty hasn’t stopped him from acting as the team’s chief recruiter. As relayed by Will Guillory of NOLA.com, Cousin is apparently reaching out [...]

Even now, with the New Orleans Pelicans headed for the lottery, the DeMarcus Cousins trade remains a good one for Louisiana’s finest. If you can get Cousins for what will be a mid-end first, Buddy Hield and filler, you do it. Contrary to popular belief, and initial reactions, the move was not a no-brainer, though. [...]

No wonder DeMarcus Cousins isn’t member of the Los Angeles Lakers. The Sacramento Kings were asking for too much. That’s not the vibe you get from the package they ultimately accepted from the New Orleans Pelicans—Buddy Hield, a top-three protected first-round in this year’s draft, the Philadelphia 76ers’ second-round pick, Langston Galloway and Tyreke Evans. [...]

Acquiring DeMarcus Cousins hasn’t exactly guaranteed the Pelicans a playoff spot in the West. There are still some teams ahead of them for 8th in the West. That’s a lot to ask for with less than a month remaining in the regular season. It makes you wonder whether or not he’ll want to remain in [...]

New location, same DeMarcus Cousins. As you’d expect, he’s still the same fiery competitor in New Orleans playing alongside Anthony Davis as he was as the focal point in Sacramento. Cousins was hit with a $50,000 for verbal altercations with fans earlier in the week. “Inappropriate language” is what the league is calling it. In [...]

The DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis experiment in New Orleans hasn’t gotten off to a roaring start thus far as the Pelicans are 2-5 since their blockbuster trade deadline move and Cousins and Davis haven’t quite found their on court chemistry yet. That is somewhat to be expected though as the two most gifted young [...]

The Sacramento Kings traded DeMarcus Cousins to the New Orleans Pelicans for what amounts to Buddy Hield, a mid-end first-round pick, a second-round pick and filler. If general manager Vlade Divac had his way, though, he would have netted one of the league’s brightest young players in any deal he struck. Here’s what Divac said [...]

Hello! Welcome to this space, where we will now confirm everything you suspected about the DeMarcus Cousins trade. Yes, the Sacramento Kings could have done better than Buddy Hield, Tyreke Evans, Langston Galloway, a top-three protected pick that probably won’t land in the top 10, and a second-round pick (via the Philadelphia 76ers! But still.). [...]

DeMarcus Cousins is officially excited to the leave the Sacramento Kings for the New Orleans Pelicans. Not so excited he’ll commit to re-signing with them, but happy enough to, well, sound happy enough. The Pelicans pulled out all the stops to make sure they were welcoming right way. Michael Lee detailed their efforts in a [...]
