Cousins averaged 6.1 points and 6.3 rebounds per game in eight games with the Nuggets. He’s signed 10-day contracts with the Bucks and Denver throughout the 2021-2022 campaign as COVID-19 has devastated the League nearly all season. In 17 games with Milwaukee, Boogie averaged 9.1 points and 5.8 boards per game, earning five starts.
The four-time All-Star has moved around the League since suffering devastating leg injuries with the Pelicans, Warriors, and Lakers, although he never donned the purple-and-gold. The 31-year-old Kentucky product has played for the Kings, Pelicans, Warriors, and the Rockets.
