Former Denver Nuggets center DeMarc Cousins is retired from the NBA
Two-time All-NBA star DeMarcus Cousins was arguably the league's best center at his peak. Making four-straight All-Star Game appearances in his prime, Cousins was a dominant center that could do nearly everything on the court at a high level.
Last playing in the NBA for the Denver Nuggets in the 2021-22 season, Cousins has been out of the league since that final stint. During a episode of"The same reason we're not in the NBA: Politics," Cousins said when Jaylen Brown not being on Team USA was brought up. "If you actually know Jaylen Brown and what he represents and how he carries himself, they don't like that... They want a guy that's falling in line. If you have an opinion you better keep it to yourself.
Cousins recently put on a show with Howard and Quinn Cook on the Taiwan Mustangs, but it sounds like the former All-Star would have liked his NBA career to last a bit longer than it did.In Cousins' final NBA stint, he appeared in 31 games for the Nuggets, averaging 8.9 points per game in just 13.9 minutes per game.Title: Credentialed writer covering the NBA for Sports Illustrated's FanNation Email: joeylinn52@gmail.
