Favorite team growing up was the Lakers.

But Boogie hasn’t developed into one of the league’s best on skill alone.

Cousins had a broken relationship with then-coach George Karl that he wanted the center to be traded.

Prior to recent speculations, Cousins was also linked to the Boston Celtics as the team was looking into players from the Kings. National Basketball Association rumors suggest that the team already has a lot of problems to deal with and they would do anything to do away with the issues that might arise if they lose DeMarcus Cousins, reported Pabaon News. He will play with the Kings for four years receiving a total compensation of more than $65 million. While Cousins played great with the Sacramento Kings, he hasn’t been in a playoff through his National Basketball Association career. However, they have the trade pieces to make a deal work with Sacramento.

Truly, the Los Angeles Lakers need a big man to compliment the newly acquired Luol Deng and Timofey Mozgov including the young players like Jordan Clarkson, D’Angelo Russell and Brandon Ingram. It might mean nothing or the big man could be sending a message to the Kings organization.
