Vlade Divac told the media the Sacramento Kings had a better offer for DeMarcus Cousins than the one they executed with the New Orleans Pelicans but it fell through.

"I don't want to discuss in details about the process," said Divac.

Divac also revealed he went to All-Star weekend in New Orleans with the intent of trading away Cousins.

When asked why the Kings decided to make the trade when they did, Divac replied: "Because we'd probably lose value if we waited."
