LOS ANGELES -- Less than a minute into his first game as a member of the LA Clippers, DeMarcus Cousins maneuvered his way around Enes Kanter, tapped an offensive rebound to himself and scored on a putback right in front of a delighted Clippers owner Steve Ballmer.
Making his debut for the team after signing a 10-day contract on Monday, Cousins seven points, four rebounds and two assists in seven minutes during the Clippers' 133-116 blowout win over Portland at Staples Center.
"He was great," said Paul George, who hit six 3-pointers and finished with 36 points.
