In the last eight games, power forward DeMarcus Cousins of the Sacramento Kings has averaged: 26.9 points, 13.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.5 blocks. These beastly stats are a typical day at the office for players like Kevin Love and Dwight Howard, but not for the King’s hot-headed big man. Even more surprising about Cousin’s strong play is the consistency considering the turmoil that surrounded the Kings at the start of the season. After a dreadful 2-5 start to the season, which saw the Kings lose by large margins, the team fired head coach Paul Westphal.
