Dave Joerger plans on using DeMarcus Cousins in the high post more this season as he implements his offense for the Sacramento Kings. Cousins will be more of a facilitator in the role similar to how Marc Gasol operated.

“I love it. I love it. I love it,” said Cousins.

Cousins averaged 3.3 assists per game last season.

“A lot of learning,” Cousins said after Monday’s practice. “It’s a new system, of course, a lot of options, man. The offense is different. I think it’s a good look for our team. I think this will help this team get to the next level. So it’s about us getting the system down pat and getting these options, a lot of options."
