After the game, Cousins talk to the media about how he felt to be back in the court after been injured for almost a year with a torn Achilles.
“Felt like a kid on Christmas. This was probably one of the best days of my life just being back on the floor playing the game that I love.”
Even Shaun Livingston was amazed when he saw the five former All-Stars getting ready before the game started.
“I’m not going to lie, I saw the five of them together and for a second, I was like: ‘Wow. That’s a fantasy squad.’ ”
