DeMarcus Cousins faced ejection from a Puerto Rican basketball game after a fierce altercation with a fan, escalating tensions as he left the court. The former NBA star, now with Mets de Guaynabo, confronted a courtside fan who insulted him, leading to Cousins' provocative gestures and a near-violent exit. The incident drew comparisons to past basketball brawls, notably the Malice at the Palace. With BSN officials reviewing the situation, Cousins’ hopes of revitalizing his basketball career may be under threat as his team deliberates on potential disciplinary actions.
The altercation escalated to a level reminiscent of the Malice at the Palace, with fans throwing drinks and food at Cousins as he exited.
Cousins has been trying to revive his basketball career with Mets de Guaynabo after stints in Taiwan and Mongolia, but his incident may jeopardize that.
After being ejected, Cousins reacted defiantly to the crowd, flipping them off and lashing out verbally, requiring teammates to restrain him.
