Across the Sacramento Kings locker room, players are not sure whether DeMarcus Cousins will ever figure out how to control his emotions on a consistent basis.

Cousins was ejected for throwing an elbow on Sunday, and his teammates admit they are unsure how much more advice and guidance the young big man needs.

"You can give a person as much advice as you can," Jason Thompson said. "From us, to coaches, to Hall of Famers, to whatever. But at the end of the day you're in this league because you're a grown man, you've going to do what you want to do."

Isaiah Thomas believes Cousins will get over this obstacle at some point.

"I hope. I don't know what it's going to take. I hope so. He's a helluva player, one of the best big men in the league. He has to be smarter in certain situations so one day so I hope it does click or something but I think it's in his control. It's in nobody's control but himself. And I think it will click, hopefully soon."
