Ranking the NBA's Best Offensive Players Going Into 2018

#6 DeMarcus Cousins

DeMarcus Cousins

Few big men in NBA history have had the kind of low-post dominance that Boogie subjects his opponents to, every time he sets foot on the court. Among one of the nightly threats to notch up a 20-10 double-double, Cousins has every facet of his offensive game sorted - there is no real weakness.

He can stretch the floor with a respectable 3-point shot (he averages 35.2% this season from downtown) in a manner that few other centers in the league can. At 6'11", it is nearly impossible to contest his jumpers, floaters, and runners that allow him to scoop the ball into the hoop with regularity.

Double-teaming him will not pay off either, as Cousins is the best playmaking big in this league - he averages 5.2 assists per game this season, which is the best figure of his career. At just 27 years old, Cousins has a good 7-8 years ahead of him at his physical prime, and there is no center in the league who can match his skill set on offense.
