DeMarcus Cousins, widely known as Boogie, recently shared his all-time best five from Kentucky on the show "ATS Unplugged". Cousins played for Kentucky during his college career and currently plays for the Taiwan Beer Leopards in the T1 League as a center.

Cousins didn't take any time in naming his all-time best five, mentioning it is "easy" for him. He started with John Wall as point guard, Devin Booker as shooting guard, Tayshuan Prince as small forward, Anthony Davis as forward, and finally, selecting himself at center.

Cousins said (at the 8:31 mark):

"This is gonna be so easy for me. At PG, I'm going with John Wall. You know he basically started this whole wave so you got to respect to what's been done. Shooting Guard, I'm going with De Book. For small forward, I think we need to lengthen the defense to go along with shot making, so we go with Tayshaun Prince. Power forward, obviously Anthony Davis, another "founder of this s**t" and at Center, I'm going with myself. We gonna hold the pain down and dominate"
