Another scare for the US as Cousins hurts his knee

DeMarcus Cousins had a big bag of ice on his right knee while he watched the end of practice on Thursday. He briefly covered his face with a towel as trainers milled around his table next to the folded gym bleachers.

Just making it to the World Cup of Basketball is proving to be quite a chore for the US national team.

Cousins was injured when he tangled with Anthony Davis after both big men hit the floor during practice. An MRI on Cousins' knee showed no structural damage.
