On the afternoon of the 22nd, former NBA All Star player Cousins finished his trip to China and set off to return to the United States. The main purpose of Cousins China trip this time is to participate in a certain brand of basketball activities. But at the same time, some CBA teams have also had contact with the Cousins team. According to a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily, a CBA team has provided a quote to Cousins, but it deviated significantly from his expectations, so he did not sign.

Cousins was once a big man at the NBA All Star level, with fierce internal competition and comprehensive technical skills. At the peak of his career, he excelled in scoring, rebounding, and other aspects. However, after leaving the Kings, Cousins's career began to decline, as he traveled to multiple teams and was unable to return to the peak. In 2022, Cousins signed a short contract with the Nuggets, which was also his final stop in his NBA career. In 2023, Cousins left the NBA to play in the Puerto Rico league.

Not long ago, Cousins came to China and this time he was invited to participate in a basketball event of a certain brand. The appearance fee provided by the other party is relatively high, which is also the main motivation for Cousins' trip to China this time. At the same time, Cousins also hopes to use this opportunity to learn more about Chinese basketball. During this period, some CBA teams had contact with the Cousins team. It is understood that a team has submitted a quotation, but it is significantly different from Cousins' expectations.

Previously, there were rumors that Guangdong team was interested in signing Cousins. But the general manager of Guangdong team, Zhu Fangyu, responded to this by saying, "At present, we haven't considered Kao Xinsi. It's all rumors, and the team is not very interested in him. How long can Kao Xinsi play? After running back and forth for about two times, he's probably out of breath. We really haven't considered it."
