He might be the most sought after High School Basketball Recruit ever out of the state of Alabama way bigger than NBA HOF Charles Barkley and Barkley's Rival Bobby Lee Hurt from Huntsville, Alabama or even Robert Horry from Andalusia, Alabama. He shared some of he spotlight with fellow Alabama Native Eric Bledsoe (Birmingham, AL) who would also join DeMarcus at the University of Kentucky playing for Coach John Calipari and the Wildcats.




Rated the #1 or #2 High School Basketball player in the Class of 2009 from famed Mobile, Alabama Leflore H.S. also home of former H.S. All-American and Duke standout PF Antonio Lang it was DeMarcus Cousins turn as the "Next in Line" Star from Alabama to make it big in College and the NBA. Current Utah Jazz PF Derrick Favors (Atlanta, GA) was atop the Class of 2009 Rankings with Boogie Man...

Boogie was staying home to play for University of Alabama at Birmingham for then Coach Mike Davis the former Indiana Hoosier Coach. UAB wouldn't commit to Davis long-term so Boogie Man went with Coach Cal and Kentucky where he teamed up with the aforementioned Bledsoe and current Washington Wizards Star PG John Wall (Raleigh, N.C.).

At UK Boogie and Company went right through the SEC and was picked by many not only to get to the Final 4 but to win it all as Syracuse beat UK in the East Regional Final as all three players went to the NBA after their Freshman Year. Boogie was selected #5 pick in Round 1 by the Sacramento Kings where he flourished for a Organization for some seven seasons having no shot at Winning Time.

Then in the 2016-17 season right at the Trade Deadline it happened as Boogie was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans to play with fellow Kentucky Wildcat and Star PF/C Anthony Davis. The following season Boogie and the "Brow" dominated and has the "Pels" aiming high then in January 2018 Boogie tore that Achilles Tendon and little did we know that changed Boogie's Course for playing with the "Pels" and the "Brow" forever.  What was in the works was a Max Deal to keep Boogie playing alongside Davis for years to come.

Ironically enough Boogie coming off that Achilles was given no deal by the "Pels" and a phone call from one Dubs #1 Voice @Money23Green Draymond Green Boogie shocked the NBA World signing a veterans minimum $5.3 million deal for 365 days to play with the Champs.

Now the plot thickens as Boogie came off his first game with "Dubs" this past Friday Night with 14 points and six boards in 15 minutes as he fouled out. Here is a scenario to watch as Kevin Durant most likely will not sign back with "Dubs" and tat might open the door for Boogie in Summer 2k19...stay tuned!
