DeMarcus Cousins most recently played in the NBA during the 2021-22 season when he was a member of the Milwaukee Bucks and Denver Nuggets.
That season, he averaged 9.0 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists per contest while shooting 46.0% from the field and 30.3% from the three-point range in 48 games.
At one time, Cousins was regarded as one of the NBA’s premier players during his stints with the Sacramento Kings and New Orleans Pelicans. However, his career was hindered by injuries, which prevented him from reaching his full potential during his prime years.
Cousins was the fifth pick in the 2010 NBA Draft out of Kentucky and played the first six and a half seasons of his career in Sacramento.
In addition to the Bucks, Kings, Nuggets and Pelicans, he has also spent time with the Houston Rockets, Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Clippers.
His career averages are 19.6 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.1 blocks per contest while shooting 46.0% from the field and 33.1% from the three-point range in 654 regular season games.
He has also appeared in 20 NBA playoff games.
