For the third straight season, DeMarcus Cousins earned yet another All-Star appearance. The 27-year-old center who began his career with the Sacramento Kings is now with the New Orleans Pelicans, alongside Anthony Davis to create the best frontcourt in the game. Here are the five goals for Cousins in 2017-18.

DeMarcus Cousins is the best center in the league.

The 27-year-old averaged a career-high 27 points and 11 rebounds for the Sacramento Kings and New Orleans Pelicans last season, where he was traded following the All-Star break in exchange for Buddy Hield, Langston Galloway and a first and second round pick in the 2017 NBA Draft.

Now, in his first full season with the Pelicans, Cousins will seek to team up with Anthony Davis in the frontcourt in the effort to help guide the franchise back to the postseason. The three-time All-Star is set to enter his eighth season in the best shape of his life, and is prepared to showcase his deep portfolio of skills.
