Sacramento Kings behemoth DeMarcus Cousins lining up in the backfield as an NFL running back would be a defender's worst nightmare.

A 6-foot-11, 270-pound juggernaut of a human being that possesses his elite combination of strength and agility should be able to dominate as a professional football player. That theory was recently put to the test by the Kings, who created their All-Star as a character in the ever-popular Madden video game and put him on his favorite squad, the Oakland Raiders.

In a simulated matchup, Cousins set new league records by rushing for 382 yards and crossing the end zone on six occasions in a convincing 45-6 beatdown of the New Orleans Saints.

Boogie's got some moves.
