DeMarcus Cousins’ name doesn’t jump off the page when you scan the box score of Monday night’s contest between the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers. Its inclusion is certainly noteworthy - it will take a lot more than two games for a fanbase used to seeing “Kevon Looney”, “Damian Jones”, “JaVale McGee”, and “Zaza Pachulia” occupy the space next to “C” on the stat sheet to get used to this - but the numbers appearing alongside it won’t make your eyes pause.
Eight points on nine shots.
