Cousins could be rested a couple games down the final stretch of the NBA season, Jason Jones of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Analysis:

Cousins had expressed a desire to get a few nights off previously, but head coach George Karl was not particularly accommodating. Karl says he now wants to experiment with some different lineups, but it's more likely that the Kings would like to experiment with a higher draft pick. Fantasy owners will have to check Cousins' status before every game he plays for the rest of the way since his rest days may be unpredictable.
