Cousins has signed a deal with the Selenge Bodons. Perhaps Mongolia is the only place that would take him. If you hadn't heard, you might not be surprised to learn that he was suspended and thrown out of the Puerto Rican league he was playing in earlier this summer for "acts that incite violence or provocation."

Cousins had been a polarizing figure during his 11 years in the NBA. Loaded with talent, he consistently found himself in trouble for aggressive behavior, with players, officials and others, even being suspended by the one team whose fans truly loved him, the Sacramento Kings. Back in 2012, the Kings suspended Cousins indefinitely for "unprofessional behavior and conduct detrimental to the team".
