Vlade Divac admitted on Thursday that the relationship between George Karl and DeMarcus Cousins is not "pretty right now."

Divac expects both Karl and Cousins to be with the franchise at the start of next season.

"Well, I'll be honest with you, it's not pretty right now, but I'm focused on bringing a better team this year and I think I did a pretty good job in this free agency and now I'm going to be focused on the two of them," he said.

Divac would like to build the franchise around Cousins.

"Well, I'll be honest with you, it's not pretty right now, but I'm focused on bringing a better team this year and I think I did a pretty good job in this free agency and now I'm going to be focused on the two of them," he said.
