The Golden State Warriors secured arguably the bargain of the offseason when they signed former superstar DeMarcus Cousins to just over a $5 million contract. The NBA world was losing its mind.
Cousins played just 30 regular season games with Golden State. He returned in the second half of the season after fully recovering from his Achilles tendon tear that left him sidelined for the majority of the season.
After nine seasons, three of which he averaged over 25 points per game, Cousins finally made a postseason appearance. In his first postseason game, Cousins scored just nine points on 4-for-12 from the field, being shut down by Montrezl Harrell and Ivica Zubac.
