Kings All-Star DeMarcus Cousins angrily threw a basketball and hit Chris Paul in the head

There’s no denying the immense talent of DeMarcus Cousins. Looking at the talent of the Sacramento Kings All-Star center, it’s not a far cry to say that he’s the most talented big man in the entire NBA. However, his biggest issue has always been his behavior and lack of maturity on the court, both of which flared up in a big way on Friday night at the expense of Chris Paul’s head.

As the Los Angeles Clippers were running away from the Kings late in the fourth quarter, Jeff Green threw down a fast break dunk and Cousins went to inbound the ball. However, Paul got up under his arm with a pesky little move to allow the Clippers to get back on defense. This apparently infuriated Boogie as the big man mustered up his best Randy Johnson impersonation and fired a fastball right at the back of Paul’s head, connecting:

Once you finally can see again through the tears of laughter that this clip undoubtedly coaxes out of anyone, consider the fact that Cousins wasn’t even reprimanded for this; the ball rolled out of bounds off of CP3’s head and the Kings were awarded the ball, which only makes this all the more hilarious.

What won’t be hilarious, though, is that this is undoubtedly going to lighten Cousins’ wallet in the coming days after the league reviews this tape. Even if it’s technically a basketball play, you can watch the rage rise up within Boogie before he fires a heater into Paul’s dome. That’s not going to fly, even if it’s hysterical.
