Injured Los Angeles Lakers center DeMarcus Cousins made his first post on social media after allegations that he threatened to kill his ex-girlfriend surfaced, and it gives people a peek to his current mental state.
Cousins have largely stayed off social media platforms ever since the allegations were made. He was charged with domestic violence and has been even issued an arrest warrant.
On Friday, though, Cousins broke his silence by posting a video on Twitter with no caption at all.

The tweet has gotten various reactions from the fans. Some made jokes about the police coming to arrest him. Others expressed their support for him, while some took what the video said and agreed that everything is going off the rails for him.
It's understandable to see why Cousins see things this way. He signed a one-year deal with the Golden State Warriors last season in order to win a championship, but injuries robbed him of that first ring. He then signed with the Lakers and reunited with former New Orleans teammate Anthony Davis only to suffer an ACL injury this offseason.
The team has signed Dwight Howard to fill in for Cousins, and the recent allegation is adding to what some may consider a sequence of unfortunate events.
The former Kentucky Wildcat has been an impressive 21-10 player in his 10 seasons in the NBA. However, injuries over the past couple of years have derailed his performances. After his recent ACL injury, some fans are even wondering if Cousins can come back as the All-Star player that was once considered the best center in the NBA.
Eyes will be fixed on him as he tries to bounce back from this latest debacle.
