DeMarcus Cousins’ Puerto Rican comeback just took a disastrous turn. And it’s all caught on camera.
On June 9, during a regular-season BSN game, the former NBA All-Star got into a heated confrontation with a courtside fan while playing for the Guaynabo Mets. It started as a verbal exchange. It ended with an ejection, a viral meltdown, and a season-ending suspension.
As Cousins exited the court, he allegedly made an obscene gesture and lunged at the fan, only to be met with a shower of drinks, popcorn, and chaos.
Beer Showers and a Near Brawl
The scene spiraled quickly. Fans hurled beer and insults. Cousins tried to retaliate. Video shows him chasing toward the crowd before being tackled by teammates, restrained by security, and eventually held down by police.
No punches landed, but the fallout was immediate.
The BSN suspended Cousins for the rest of the 2025 season and rescinded his contract with the Mets entirely. He was also fined over $4,000, with potential penalties still pending.
A Career Rewind—And a Collapse
Cousins had been averaging a solid 18–19 points and 9 rebounds across 9+ games. This was his second stint with the Mets, part of a wider effort to reignite his professional career after his NBA chapter closed.
But this incident? It’s a devastating blow to that revival.
Just a year ago, he was celebrated for joining the league. Now, his name’s tied to one of the most talked-about ejections in recent BSN history.
Online Reactions: Mixed, But Loud
Clips of the scuffle have pulled in over 2 million views across social platforms. Some fans were quick to criticize Cousins’ behavior. Others argued he was baited and pushed too far.
“Sad to see,” one commenter posted. “But I’d react too if someone dumped beer on me walking off the court.”
BSN Responds with New Rules
The league has already announced stricter security protocols and potential bans for unruly fans. In a statement, officials emphasized that player safety, and accountability, are now under review.
As for Cousins? He’s out. No timeline, no team, no second chance, at least for now.
