DeMarcus Cousins Practices With Warriors For First Time

The Warriors‘ formidable five-All-Star lineup is coming closer to fruition as injured center DeMarcus Cousins practiced with the team on Thursday ahead of the team’s Friday matchup against the Knicks, per the Associated Press. There remains no timetable for his return.

It was Cousins’ first practice since he signed with the Warriors over the summer. Cousins’ work has been limited to individual and one-on-one drills.

The 28-year-old suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon last January as a member of the Pelicans. He was ruled out for the remainder of the season and for at least part of the current campaign.

Cousins, a six-time All-Star, averaged 25.2 PPG and 12.9 RPG in 48 games for New Orleans last season before suffering the injury.
