According to reports, DeMarcus Cousins would make a great addition to Celtics as the player could offer a double-double or triple-double performance. However, the downside about Boogie's is his attitude towards his coach and the game officials.
DeMarcus Cousins is so emotional when he is in the basketball court that he easily gets furious. However, he is a very reliable player.
