New Orleans Pelicans All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins, in his first public comments since tearing his Achilles on Friday night, said he'll overcome the injury, adding the hashtag #TheResurgence.

In a social media post, Cousins wrote:

"No lie this s--- sucks! I've never experienced an injury of this magnitude in my life, but with that being said nothing I've earned has ever come easy for me either! I've only gotten it the hard way and I don't expect things to change for me now. I'll overcome this as well and continue to prove.
