As in almost all NBA clubs, the situation in Denver is not the best when it comes to injured and infected players. That is why the Colorado franchise decided to react to the market and bring help to Nikola Jokić!
The Serb is playing again at the MVP level, but the problem for Denver is that they do not have an adequate solution in the center position to rest Jokić or bring him a basketball player who would help him.
However, that solution is in sight, since, according to the respectable Adrian Wojnarowski, Denver has agreed to a ten-day contract with DeMarcus Cousins!
It has been speculated in recent days that the agreement is already a done deal, but the reason it has just been signed is that Denver is waiting for as many as six games in the next 10 days.
Hence the idea of signing the cooperation agreement with the experienced center and the quadruple All-Star (from 2015 to 2018) only now.
It is from that 2018 that the great decline in Cousins’ career actually begins, which was sponsored by numerous injuries after which he never returned to the old level.
This season, he has shown some hints of his old form. Especially in Milwaukee, where he averaged 9.1 points and 5.8 rebounds in 17 games.
His last stop was with the Bucks, and now he’ll try to help Jokic and his teammates in the Nuggets jersey attack the best possible position in the West playoffs.
So who knows, maybe this cooperation will be sweetened for Denver and Cousins, and instead of a ten-day contract, it will grow into one guaranteed until the end of the season.
