Lakers center DeMarcus Cousins injures knee; could be torn ACL

El Segundo, Calif. • Los Angeles Lakers center DeMarcus Cousins was scheduled for tests on Thursday amid fears that he has a torn ACL, which would be a third major injury in less than two years for the once-perennial All-Star.

Cousins got hurt in a workout in Las Vegas earlier this week, a person with knowledge of the matter told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no official diagnosis has been released publicly.

If the fears are confirmed, Cousins would almost certainly miss much — if not all — of the coming season.
