DeMarcus Cousins injury update Warriors center qua from seestyle's blog

The Warriors are still expecting to be without DeMarcus Cousins for the rest of the playoffs.The 28-year-old center, who tore his left quadriceps muscle last week, began his rehab program Tuesday, coach Steve Kerr told reporters. But, the team is not optimistic about Cousins return."It was good to see him, and obviously weve been gone the last week or so," Kerr said, . "Its good Walter Payton Jersey for everyone to see him and vice versa. Well see what happens in a few weeks once we have a better sense of his healing and his ability to maybe get on the court.Who knows? But at this point, Id say its highly unlikely (he returns in the playoffs).Cousins suffered the injury when he fell chasing down a loose ball on a fast break in the first quarter of Golden States Game 2 lo s to the Clippers. He was helped back to the locker Eddie Goldman Jersey room and was ruled out shortly after.Boogie went back to the locker room after this play with apparent leg injury. Warriors on NBCS (@NBCSWarriors) You're probably looking at a couple months' recovery, so it's unlikely, Kerr said shortly after Cousins injury. But (the Warriors' sports medicine staff has) told me that there are occasions Prince Amukamara Jersey where that injury heals faster. So, we're leaving the door open, obviously."The four-time All-Star made his first career playoff appearance in Game 1 of the series, scoring nine points and grabbing nine rebounds in 21 minutes of action.Cousins signed a one-year, $5.3 million deal with the Warriors in July and mi sed the teams first 45 games as he continued to recovery from a torn Achilles."More than anything, I'm just crushed for DeMarcus, Charles Leno Jersey " Kerr said last week. "He's been waiting his whole career for this. Then, the second game, he goes down after putting all that work in to recover from the Achilles. And he's had a great season for us. He's really come along the last month or so. I just feel bad for him."Cousins finished the regular Mitchell Trubisky Jersey season averaging 16.3 points and 8.2 rebounds in 25.7 minutes per game.The Warriors will face the Clippers on Wednesday in Game 5 at Oracle Arena. Theyll enter the matchup with a 3-1 series lead. Related Articles
