Kings forward/center DeMarcus Cousins wanted his side of the story put out after the NBA denied an appeal request by the NBPA to have his 2 game suspension over turned. Today Cousins released a statement to address the matter.
“I appreciate the support of the NBA Player’s Association in appeal of my suspension by the NBA. I believe it best to allow the union and my agent, John Greig, to present my position about the situation. Despite believing the penalty unwarranted, I want to apologize to the Sacramento Kings, our fans and especially to my coaches and teammates for this distraction of our goals. As a leader of the team, I have to make the best decisions so my teammates can count on me. I am committed to continued growth and being the best player I can be.”
