Another prolific former NBA star will suit up for the Strong Group Athletics. 

SGA announced that four-time All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins will reinforce the squad in the upcoming 34th Dubai International Basketball Championship. 

“[I] can't wait to help bring home SGA’s first-ever Dubai International Basketball championship. Let’s get to work,” Cousins posted in a tweet on X Saturday. 

After finishing as runner-up last year, Strong Group is gearing up for another run at the title in signing a two-time All-NBA Second Team member in Cousins.
