DeMarcus Cousins isn’t eligible for a no-trade clause

It’s been reported since mid-January that the Sacramento Kings may be including a no-trade clause into DeMarcus Cousins’ upcoming contract extension. That’s counter to the pre-existing CBA, which stipulated that no-trade clauses could not be written into contract extensions, unless the clause was present in the original contract.

Talking potential Cousins extension on @TheDrive1140.Two parameters we are reporting being worked:

- no trade clause

- 4th year opt out— Carmichael Dave (@CarmichaelDave) January 11, 2017

The question was if the new CBA would have any new wrinkles that would somehow allow the Kings to include this as added incentive for Cousins.
