An MRI has confirmed that DeMarcus Cousins suffered a torn quad in last night’s second game of the Warriors NBA Playoffs series vs. the Clippers.
Cousins will likely miss the remainder of the playoffs, but the severity of the tear is still unknown:

This is probably season-ending for Cousins, but he and the team will see how he responds within the first two weeks of rehab that is not expected to require surgery, sources said.
