DeMarcus CousinsKings | C | @boogiecousinsLast years rank: 122016-17 projected RPM: 5.82Insider profile:?On the court, the biggest evolution of Cousins game was the addition of 3-point range. Hed made only 11 triples in 69 attempts in his first six seasons before firing up 210 last season, which he made at a 33.3 percent clip. While the newfound range helped Cousins coexist with Willie Cauley-Stein in big starting lineups, the Kings would surely prefer him in the paint, where he drew enough fouls to average a career-high 10.6 free throw attempts per 36 minutes. ?Read more ?#NBArank 11-2011: Karl-Anthony Towns12: Blake Griffin13: DeMarcus Cousins14: Draymond Green15: Kyrie Irving16: Klay Thompson17: John Wall18: Kyle Lowry19: Giannis Antetokounmpo20: Andre DrummondFake Yeezy Kaufen .

While New York (1-3-0) is playing on two days rest following a 3-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday, the Coyotes (1-2-0) will be playing a night after absorbing a 5-2 loss to the Canadiens in Montreal.With the Islanders game in mind, Coyotes coach Dave Tippett pulled goalie Louis Domingue after he gave up four goals in the first two periods. Domingue, who is Arizonas No. 1 goalie in place of the injured Mike Smith, will start again on Friday.To change momentum for us and recognize we have to play tomorrow night again, Tippett said in explaining his decision. Well put Louie back in there tomorrow night and see if we get a better start from him.The Coyotes, who will be playing the third game of a season-high, six-game road trip, have allowed 12 goals in losing their past two games and 15 goals in three games overall. Arizona is one of nine NHL teams to give up at least 15 goals thus far but the only one that has played fewer than four games.Theres areas of our game that still have to (be cleaned) up, Tippett said. Some of the execution is not what it needs to be. For us, we need all the parts to work for us to be real competitive.The Coyotes will be the second consecutive reeling Pacific Division teamm to head into Barclays Center.dddddddddddd The Islanders loss to the Sharks came a night after San Jose absorbed a 7-4 loss to the New York Rangers.New York looked like the flatter team Tuesday, when it had just four shots in the first period and six shots in the third period.Its a 60-minute game, theres a surge both ways, but at the end of the day, youve got to be consistent putting pucks on net, Islanders coach Jack Capuano said. Because when you put pucks on net, youre going to retrieve those pucks and youre going to get extended zone time.The Islanders have scored just nine goals this season, the second fewest among teams that have played more than three games.Weve played a lot of games here at the start, obviously, not the results weve wanted for the most part, Islanders center and captain John Tavares said. Weve just got to get off to a little better start on Friday.Islanders No. 1 goalie Jaroslav Halak is likely to draw the start against Domingue. If they square off, it will be a rematch of the last time the Islanders faced the Coyotes on Dec. 19, when Domingue earned his first career shutout by stopping all 25 shots he faced in Arizonas 1-0 victory at Gila River Arena.The shutout came in Domingues only career appearance against the Islanders. Halak is 6-3-1 with a 1.91 goals against average in 10 career appearances against the Coyotes. ' ' '
