Cousins made his debut for his new squad on January 21 against the Los Angeles Clippers, and since then, the Warriors have won five out of their six games with him on the hardcourt. The Dubs actually won their first five contests with the 6-foot-11 big man in action, and they only saw their hot streak broken last Thursday as the Philadelphia 76ers handed them only their first defeat in 12 games.

Cousins had a rather forgettable evening against Joel Embiid and co., scoring only seven points on 3-of-10 shooting. He missed both of his attempts from distance, but also notched six rebounds, six assists, three steals, a block, and three turnovers.

The good news for Cousins and the Warriors is that his 25.1 minutes played on against the Sixers marked the most minutes he's logged since making his highly-anticipated comeback. Head coach Steve Kerr appears to be taking a very cautious approach on his prized big man, but the fact that his minutes continue to rise on a game-to-game basis only means that he is slowly, but surely making his way back to top form.
