Kings' Cousins Reportedly Suspended

((HT: News10 Sacramento))

Sacramento Kings rookie center DeMarcus Cousins has been suspended by the team for Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns, according to a report by Sam Amick of AOL Fanhouse.

Cousins did not accompany the team to Phoenix, but no one could confirm that any kind of disciplinary action had yet to be taken with Cousins.

Amick also reported that the call to remove Cousins from the team's plane and suspend him came directly from Kings GM Geoff Petrie, after a run-in between Cousins and teammate Donte Greene after Saturday night's 99-97 loss to Oklahoma City.

According to Amick, the tete-a-tete had to do with the way the team ran the final play where Tyreke Evans missed a three pointer that would have won the game with 5.5 seconds remaining.

This would be the game in question...

Cousins, apparently, was yelling at Evans- starting in the tunnel and continuing into the locker room. Both Greene and Cousins exchanged "swings", according to Amick.

Petrie has yet to confirm or deny the action, or any action, against Cousins...

Speed Racer has nothing on Tyreke Evans

We first told you about Tyreke Evans' attempt at driving fast back on June 1. READ THIS.

Now, flash forward two months later...it turns out there is video of said incident. And it doesn't paint a very good picture...other than the fact that his car can go fast and he's good at avoiding traffic, cops and everyone else...at least for a few minutes. Yes, if you look at the video, it would appear that he is racing.

The newspaper story from the Sacramento Bee...is RIGHT HERE

The video proof...well, here you go, it's 13 minutes long. Judge for your own self. Thanks YouTube:



Needless to say, this probably is making the Maloof brothers a bit nervous. They own the Sacramento Kings. The good news, Evans was very contrite and apologetic. He seems to understand he did something really stupid. Let's hope its the last time.
