Why This Game Is Where It Is On The List: Just another monster double-double for Boogie, which is essentially business as usual for Cousins at this point. The efficiency of Boogie’s scoring is always so good it seems to be common after going through enough of his game logs, but serious 39 points on just 28 shots is really, really good.
Logging 20 rebounds is tough for any player, but managing to score almost 40 points in the same game makes the feat that much more impressive. Couple that with Boogie having as many blocks (three) as he did turnovers or personal fouls, and you can see that despite the Kings’ loss to New Orleans that Cousins played about as well as he can.
