Kings' DeMarcus Cousins: Will play for Team USA

Cousins will play for Team USA during the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

Analysis:

The bruising Cousins should fit in well with the physical style many international big men choose to embrace, but he'll also have an athleticism advantage over many of the other frontcourt players he encounters. Look for Cousins, DeAndre Jordan and Draymond Green to occupy most of the minutes at either power forward or center during the competition.
