Through a few media outlets the SHAQramento Kings have signed their #1 Players to an extension in Big DeMarcus Cousins and at Twitter @BoogieCousins.  That signing is huge considering he was one of a handful of players to top that 2014 Free Agent List and now the Kings solidify what they think is a move in the right direction and I agree.

@BoogieCousins is a unique player and getting Shaq Fu to come on board as a minority owner was icing on the cake for the Kings. Shaq could be a mentor for Cousins moving forward as Cousins Thinking Cap isn't always air tight off the floor or on it.

At just 23 years of age and a variety of moves @BoogieCousins has more Moves in his Arsenal than almost all Bigs outside of Duncan and KG and is just as versatile. He can play face-up, back to the basket, mid-range, can eat glass with the best of them, and can handle which makes him a tough cover away from the rim on the bounce. His numbers last season were around 17 plus points per and just under ten boards an outing and that was an off year.

With Cousins off the Board Teams like the Lakers and even the Bulls might be left scrambling to get a Prized-Recruit in the Summer of 2014 to get them back into contention or stay in contention.

Cousins reportedly will sign for 4-years just north of $62 million and he could have gotten the max his UK Teammate and Wiz Kids Point God John Wall received in 5-years $80 million.
