Five Keys: Cavaliers vs. Kings ‑ Jan. 30, 2015
1 / 5Sacramento center DeMarcus Cousins is coming off a poor performance in Toronto and was recently snubbed for the upcoming All-Star Game, and that should guarantee he’ll bring an even bigger chip on his broad shoulders to Cleveland on Friday night. Cousins is the Kings’ leader in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots and he’s posted 22 double-doubles in the last 25 games he’s played in – including a 26-point, 13-rebound, five-assist, four-steal, three-block masterpiece against the Wine and Gold on January 11. Since coming into the league four years ago, he’s tallied seven double-doubles against the Cavaliers. Timofey Mozgov and Tristan Thompson will have all they can handle on Friday night at The Q. Cousins is tough on any night; he’s even tougher when he’s in a bad mood.
