The incident occurred with only 37.2 seconds remaining in the game. Cousins attempted to draw the charge against Wolves rookie, Kris Dunn, but instead was called for a block and his sixth foul.

The 26-year-old Kentucky product also received a technical foul for his actions. Last year, he was assessed with 17, which one one of the highest in the league. He now has a total of 92 so far in his six-year career.
The Kings and Cousins will look to put this incident all in the past and improve on their 2-1 record when they start their five-game road trip against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night.
