DeMarcus Cousins’ dunk highlights Warriors’ bounce-back win over Lakers

Warriors center DeMarcus Cousins, stone-faced, stared down his victim for several seconds as a capacity Oracle Arena crowd roared. Stephen Curry threw both arms in the air. As Kevin Durant ran down-court in the opposite direction, he pulled up his jersey to shield his eyes. Few could blame him. Moments earlier, Cousins caught a pass from Durant, took one giant stride into the key, extended his right arm and threw down a dunk over Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma, who went careening backward. So vicious was that third-quarter slam that many took to social media to eulogize Kuzma and his trade value (he had been mentioned this week as a piece in a possible deal with New Orleans).
