DeMarcus Cousins

DeMarcus Cousins does not miss being a member of the Sacramento Kings. He’s actually sad he didn’t get to leave them sooner. While sitting down with The Undefeated’s Marc J. Spears, the All-Star behemoth admitted, more than once, that he showed too much loyalty to a Kings organization that didn’t deserve him (via The Score’s [...]

DeMarcus Cousins is ready to wage war against the NBA’s small-ball era alongside Anthony Davis. Ahead of the New Orleans Pelicans’ season-opener, which they lost, Cousins said he believed his team’s dual-big model could spur a movement of its own, per The Times-Picayune‘s William Guillory: I was always a guy that tried to do things a [...]

We know DeMarcus Cousins has been recruiting bigger names on the New Orleans Pelicans’ behalf. Now we know one of those marquee talents is Carmelo Anthony. No need for sources here. The revelation comes straight from a picture Cousins liked on Instagram, per ESPN.com’s Ian Begley: [tweet https://twitter.com/IanBegley/status/894570533064499200?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fbleacherreport.com%2Farticles%2F2726110-demarcus-cousins-likes-instagram-post-that-links-carmelo-anthony-to-pelicans] Cousins might be in luck: The New York [...]

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 [...]

While I think Boogie is an apt and wonderful nickname for the supremely gifted, highly mercurial Demarcus Cousins, not everyone agrees. Los Angeles Clippers Head Coach Doc Rivers for instance, is not on the Boogie train one could say. When Rivers was asked about the Pelicans trade for Cousins on Saturday he seemed more interested [...]
