As the situation concerning big-name free agent DeMarcus Cousins’ future is not yet resolved, a rumor of his possible destination has popped up lately.

According to Jason Reed of Lake Show Life: “With little cap space, the Celtics should be jumping all over signing Cousins to a mid-level exception contract for a season with the potential of him being a true difference-maker. Barring any setbacks, he should be fully healthy for the start of the 2020-2021 NBA season and the potential of him as the team’s stretch five is intriguing, to say the least.”

“If Cousins returned to 80 percent of what he was during his All-NBA seasons then it would undoubtedly give the Celtics the deepest roster in the Eastern Conference and the most dynamic,” he added.
