Report: Kings to sign All-Star DeMarcus Cousins to max extension

Longtime Sacramento Kings' big man DeMarcus Cousins may not be leaving the state of California anytime soon. CSN California is reporting that the two-time All-Star will sign a lucrative max extension worth $207 million. As it stands, Cousins is on the third year of a four-year extension he signed back in Sept. 2013. The deal is up after the 2017-18 season and signing the proposed extension by the Kings would allow the team to lock up their stud for five more years. The two sides have to wait until after July 1, 2017 to consummate the extension and there are still parameters to the deal that need to be worked out.
