Nuggets coach Michael Malone: DeMarcus Cousins’ voice a “refreshing” change
Denver Nuggets center DeMarcus Cousins (4) in the second half of an NBA basketball game Monday, Feb. 14, 2022, in Denver. The Nuggets won 121-111.If Nuggets coach Michael Malone can’t be out on the court mixing it up with Denver’s opponents, at least he’ll have someone cut from the same cloth.
On Friday, the Nuggets plan on signing backup center DeMarcus Cousins for the rest of the season, a source told The Denver Post. The reason for missing Thursday’s game against Sacramento was due to salary cap implications, the source said.
Nonetheless, Cousins, perhaps Denver’s best example of an enforcer, will be with the Nuggets for the foreseeable future.
