Sources: Kings not interested in trading Cousins to Celtics
The Boston Celtics and other teams may have interest in acquiring franchise center DeMarcus Cousins, but it doesn't sound like the Kings are willing to part with their star quite yet.
Here's more from Bill Herenda of CSNBayArea.com:
"The Kings want to make a playoff run next season with DeMarcus Cousins as the centerpiece of the franchise, league sources told CSNCalifornia.com.
The Celtics reportedly have significant interest in Cousins and are expected to utilize their bevy of draft picks to secure the 6-foot-11 center from Sacramento, according to an ESPN report.
Cousins, the fifth overall pick in the 2010 draft just completed his fifth season in Sacramento and the Kings have yet to win more than 29 games with the center on the roster.
Cousins, known for his fiery demeanor on the floor, is under contract with the Kings through the 2017-18 season, though plenty of teams would love to acquire his services."
