Horror scenes as Demarcus Cousins clashes with fans in Puerto Rico

Former NBA superstar DeMarcus Cousins lost his mind in horror scenes that unfolded in Puerto Rico on Tuesday. The 34-year-old, who currently plays for the Guaynabo Mets, found himself in the centre of an ugly moment during a game against Vaqueros de Bayamon. Cousins was seen engaging with one courtside fan, who reportedly had thrown a few verbal jabs his way. The war of words however ultimately exploded when the 208cm four-time NBA All-Star confronted the fan. Cousins turned to the fan and from a close proximity grabbed his crutch before sticking a middle finger in his face. As the fan responded with two middle fingers of his own Cousins swatted his arms away as teammates came rushing in to separate the two. A fan in the second row attempted to intervene but that only further infuriated the 2016 gold medallist who raised his right fist. Cousins was eventually steered away from the courtside fracas, but that was only the beginning. As the towering American made his way across the court and towards the tunnel, fans began taunting him over the ejection. Fans hung over the railings to give him a piece of their mind as Cousins bit back at several fans before again putting a middle finger in the face of another. The fan responded almost immediately by tossing his drink onto the back of a departing Cousins. That ignited the American who quickly turned to run back and get ahold of the fan as security stepped in to stop him. As a squabble between Cousins and security continued to play out even more fans in the stands unloaded drinks and food in his direction. The ugly scenes could have been a lot worse if not for security getting between a rampaging Cousins and the fans in the stands. Many on social media stated it had the potential to be the second coming of the Malace in the Palace. Back in 2004 a game between the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers turned ugly when a brawl broke out between players and fans. Just like it was in Puerto Rico, the infamous NBA incident exploded after a fan threw a drink at Ron Artest. Punches were thrown, chairs were tossed and in the end nine players were suspended after one of the darkest moments in NBA history.
