Cousins has not played in the NBA since the 2021-22 season when he appeared in 48 games with the Denver Nuggets and Milwaukee Bucks.

Cousins’ career has been interesting, being selected as an All-Star in four straight seasons from 2015-2018 with the Sacramento Kings and the New Orleans Pelicans.

In 11 seasons, Cousins averaged 19.6 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 3 assists per game.  

But injuries quickly derailed his career. He missed the entire 2019-2020 season due to an ACL tear.

He also has a history of problematic behavior, with Golden State Warriors general manager Bob Myers saying teams are worried about how he’ll act if they sign him.

"DeMarcus called me a month ago, and he said, ‘Why am I not in the NBA?’" Myers said on the "All The Smoke" podcast in November. "And I said, ‘You want that answer? Because people are afraid of how you’re going to act.’ And he’s like ‘Why?’ And I said, ‘Well, whatever the reason is, it’s here now.’
