DeMarcus Cousins calls out Clay Travis for tweet from five years ago
DeMarcus Cousins has been patiently waiting for five years to call out Clay Travis of FOX Sports, and the Sacramento Kings center finally got his opportunity on Friday.
Five months before Cousins was taken by the Kings with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2010 NBA draft, Travis predicted that the former Kentucky star would be arrested within the next five years. In fact, he guaranteed it.
“There is a 100% chance that DeMarcus Cousins is arrested for something in the next five years. 100%,” Travis wrote at the time. “Write it in stone.”
Cousins took note. Travis made the remark on Jan. 30, 2010. Boogie shared a screenshot of the tweet on Jan. 30, 2015.
Good for Cousins. The 24-year-old has certainly had his fair share of issues on the court. Cousins has punched opposing players in the groin and thrown temper tantrums on officials, but that’s not the same as getting in trouble with the law. Travis’ tweet was unfair and it obviously bothered Cousins. You can understand why he squatted on it for five years.
