Via The Undefeated:
“One of my goals coming into this season was for DeMarcus to destroy everybody and come back and show how great of a player he is and get what I think he deserves,” Green told The Undefeated’s Marc Spears. “I’m really at a loss for words about it. It’s one that really hurt me for sure.”
Steve Kerr also commented on Cousins’ injury:
“I’m devastated for DeMarcus,” said Warriors coach Steve Kerr, who is an assistant for Team USA and coached Cousins last season with Golden State. “It’s been a couple of years of hell for DeMarcus. … We are all crushed for him.”
“Injuries are a part of the game,” Kerr later added. “But when you are talking about a player who has now dealt with the two most feared injuries for NBA players — the Achilles and the ACL — each basically knocking you out for an entire season … to deal with that over a two-and-a-half-, three-year span, it’s unheard of. What a blow for him, for the Lakers. He is going to have to process it all, start all over again.”
Injuries are part of the game, but never easy to deal with.
