Gentry says there's not one single person" in Pelicans that doesn't want Cousins to return to team
Cousins will be unrestricted free agent from July 1
Pelicans head coach Alvin Gentry said that everyone in the franchise wants to re-sign DeMarcus Cousins. The big man, who is actually injured, will be unrestricted free agent from July 1.
Per ESPN, Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry says "there's not one single person" in the organization that doesn't want free agent DeMarcus Cousins to return to the team.
"I don't really talk about free agency. But the bottom line is that obviously we'd like to have him back on our team," Gentry said Monday while speaking at the Saints Hall of Fame Golf Classic. "Anyone that thinks you're better having a guy that averaged [25 PPG, 13 RPG, 5 APG] not on your team is really kind of not in tune to what it takes to win in this league.
"So there's just so many factors that enter into it. But there's not one single person, player or coach or in the basketball ops department or ownership that doesn't want him back."
