#7 Demarcus Cousins

New Orleans Pelicans v Indiana Pacers
DeMarcus Cousins

DeMarcus Cousins is widely considered as one of the best centers in the NBA right now. He was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans mid-season last year as the news came out right after the 2017 All-Star game held in New Orleans. By joining forces with Anthony Davis, the two have formed a super team of their own.

Cousins, this season, has played some of the best basketball of his career. He is averaging 26.4 points, 13.1 boards and 5.4 assists per game. His defense seems to have improved with 1.5 blocks and 1.7 steals per game. Currently, his rebounding, steals and assists averages are all career-highs.

The two stars have found a way to gel together this season while both impacting the game in their own way as the Pelicans are at the 7th position. The Pelicans would like to build a team around their two stars and if surrounded by the right supporting cast, they could be a threat in the future.
