Cousins demands trade, will not play tonight

Share

DeMarcus Cousins has demanded to be traded and has been directed by Coach Westphal to stay home from the Kings' game vs. the Hornets tonight, the team announced today.

Through four games this season, Cousins is averaging 13 points and 11 rebounds per game.

However, he is shooting a dismal 32 from the field and was outplayed in the Kings' loss last night to the New York Knicks by rookie, and former Kentucky Wildcats teammate, Josh Harrellson.

The Kings drafted Cousins 5th overall in 2010, and he was named to the 2010-2011 All-NBA Rookie First Team after averaging 14 points and nearly nine rebounds per game a season ago.
