The relationship between DeMarcus Cousins and Sacramento Kings coach George Karl has reportedly gone from strained to borderline toxic.
Unhappy with the team's performance following Monday's 106-88 loss to the San Antonio Spurs, Cousins "stormed into the locker room and cursed out head coach George Karl with a torrent of obscenities," according to Jason McIntyre of the Big Lead. Karl did not engage with Cousins at the time, and teammates later told the All-NBA center that his tactics were not conducive to winning.
Cousins' displeasure with the franchise's direction is no secret.
