Former NBA Star DeMarcus Cousins Is BALLIN' In Puerto Rico

"DeMarcus is one of the best basketball players of his generation, and from a talent standpoint, he will be one of the best to ever play " Mets co-owner Marc Grossman said about Cousins' addition. "His ability to shoot and stretch the floor should be a great fit."

Cousins has been through a loaded career in pro hoops. As the fourth-overall-pick of the 2010 NBA Draft, Cousins played his way to seven different teams. He accrued four NBA All-Star selections across his time in Sacramento and New Orleans.

Once he reached Golden State, Cousins became more of a tertiary star in the league and fell out of relevancy by 2020. Lower-leg injuries largely hindered him throughout his NBA Career.

Despite his frequent trips to free agency, Cousins has garnered considerable attention from teams. Leading up to the postseason, the Los Angeles Lakers gave Cousins a workout, alongside ex-Miami Heat big man Meyers Leonard. The opportunity didn't pan out, shifting his career to the overseas market, where he and other ex-stars like Dwight Howard are enjoying tremendous success and notoriety.
