Agent: Cousins has torn ACL; may miss season

Los Angeles Lakers center DeMarcus Cousins has suffered a torn ACL to his left knee and could miss the entire season, agent Jeff Schwartz told ESPN on Thursday.

There is no timeline for surgery.

Cousins' visit to team physicians in Los Angeles on Thursday confirmed the diagnosis, which constitutes a third serious leg injury in the past year and a half.

Cousins, a four-time All-Star, already had mobility compromised with a left Achilles tear in January of 2018, and a quad tear in April.

Cousins, 29, was working out in Las Vegas on Monday when he had to leave the court after what one source described was Cousins "bumping knees" with another player.
