Yeah, no kidding.
I'd bet the Kings are like "Oh ****, uh... I mean good for you Boogie!".

Re: DMC earns spot on Olympic team
Zika is primarily a concern for pregnant women, or women planning to become pregnant. There's a a very small chance of Guillain-Barré (severe muscle weakness caused by your immune system attacking your own nervous system), but most cases result in no symptoms. I'm not worried about it.
Team USA is very important to Cousins, and I admire and respect anyone to takes representing our country seriously. He also took major steps forward in his game and keeps him in shape when he plays for Team USA, so I support this. Hopefully Joerger supports him as well, using this as a great opportunity to build his relationship with Cousins, like Malone did in the last tournament.

Pretty much. Joerger helping or going the extra mile of supporting Cousins succeeding on Team USA is a great way to start building a solid relationship with Cuz.
