Officially a member of the Pelicans for just three days, DeMarcus Cousins has barely had time to unpack in his new NBA city, but on Wednesday he got the chance to look at a few housing options with new teammate Anthony Davis. Cousins crossed paths with a few New Orleans fans, who immediately gave the 6-foot-11 center/forward an indication of how excited the Big Easy is for tonight’s home game vs. Houston (7 p.m., Fox Sports New Orleans, WRNO 99.5 FM).
“From what I’m hearing, it’s going to be crazy,” Cousins said of the atmosphere in the Smoothie King Center, which has limited tickets available.
