Report: Maloofs reluctant to part w/ Cousins
DeMarcus Cousins - F/C - Sacramento Kings
Dec. 29, 2012 - 10:00 AM ET

Kings owners Joe and Gavin Maloof remain reluctant to part with troubled DeMarcus Cousins despite his recent suspension for arguing with coach Keith Smart, according to ESPN.com.

Although the Maloofs may be hesitant, the Kings would have suitors if they chose to move on from DMC, who looked pretty unhappy in Friday's game against the Knicks. Front-office sources told ESPN.com the Celtics and Pistons, among others, would be interested in dealing for the mercurial big man if he became available. The Cousins trade rumors are sure to only get louder as the trade deadline approaches and in the end, a trade might be best for both parties.
