According to New Orleans sports anchor Andrew Doak of WWL-TV, Pelicans star Anthony Davis was absolutely consulted in the decision whether to re-sign DeMarcus Cousins. And Davis apparently thought the Boogie Experiment had run its course.
Lost in all of this is Anthony Davis’ role in free agency.
Source w/ team said if AD wanted Cousins back, GM Demps would have listened.
Davis liked the style the Pels started to play without Cousins, and he also liked the environment in the locker room more with Boogie absent.
Obviously NBA business is much more complicated than that.
