The talented but volatile big man was fined by the team in October for arguing with Sacramento strength coach Daniel Shapiro over a matter of personal fitness, kicked out of practice for arguing with head coach Paul Westphal in November and last week he was removed from the starting lineup after twice grabbing his throat while opposing players shot crucial free throws -- a move which Westphal deemed unprofessional.

 

The most recent indiscretion, as reported by FanHouse's Sam Amick, was yet another volatile argument with Westphal after Cousins refused to reciprocate a high-five in the fourth quarter of an 84-79 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Cousins subsequently exchanged words with Westphal yet again and was sent to the bench for a long stretch.

 

This has led, according to NBA.com's Scott Howard-Cooper, to the Kings "having serious discussions" about sending Cousins to their NBA Development League affiliate Reno Bighorns.

I think the Kings are trying all these "wake up" tactics with Cousins. Wake up, we're fining you. Wake up, you're benched. Wake up, we might send you to the D-League. I just don't think that's the way to get through to him.
