DeMarcus Cousins returned to Sacramento through the big door as leader of the New Orleans Pelicans, leading to a 106-114 victory over his Kings team.
Cousins scored just for the ball in the first play and did not stop throughout the match, to get a spectacular double-double of 41 points and 23 rebounds. The pivot scored a 3-2 deficit for the final of the game that placed the score in a 106-108 favorable to the Pelicans.
The Pelicans' triumph had double value as they got it despite the absence of their star forward, Anthony Davis, who was injured by a left knee injury. The Jrue Holiday base with 20 goals and seven assists was the Pelicans' second-highest scorer (2-3), who are 2-2 away from the field. Veteran Jameer Nelson contributed 18 points and four three-pointers, which left him as the third-highest scorer and sixth player in the Pelicans.
Rookie base DeAaron Fox scored 14 points as a substitute to lead the Kings' seven men who finished with double figures but could not avoid the defeat, the fourth in which he goes of season and the second consecutive in his field , where they still do not know the victory. Veteran power forward Zach Randolph came out with the Kings and had 13 points, nine rebounds and three assists.
