Former NBA Star DeMarcus Cousins Lands Contract with FIBA 3x3 Team Wuxi WenLv

Former NBA star center DeMarcus Cousins has continued his basketball career overseas, and he's found his next landing spot.

FIBA announced on Tuesday that Cousins has signed a contract with 3x3 World Tour team Wuxi WenLv for the remainder of this season:

Cousins last played in the NBA in 2022. Since then, he's played in Puerto Rico's Baloncesto Superior Nacional league and Taiwan's T1 League. In May, he was named the T1 League Most Popular Player of the Year for the 2023–24 campaign.

A four-time NBA All-Star, Cousins was once one of the best centers in the league. His career took an unfortunate turn when he suffered a torn Achilles in January 2018, which kicked off a run of devastating injuries that hindered him from regaining his form.

Still, Cousins has proved he can be effective in international play, so joining Wuxi WenLv will give him another chance to showcase his skills this year.
