Center DeMarcus Cousins suffered a “significant” injury to his left leg during Game 2 of the Warriors’ first-round playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Golden State Warriors lost starting center DeMarcus Cousins to a noncontact leg injury Monday, as the four-time all-star crumpled to the court while chasing a loose ball early in the first quarter. Stunned and shaken, Warriors Coach Steve Kerr told reporters that Cousins would undergo an MRI on Tuesday to assess a “pretty significant” left quad injury. But just four minutes into Game 2, Cousins stumbled awkwardly as he tracked down the ball in the backcourt. L.A. Clippers guard Landry Shamet is congratulated by Patrick Beverley after making a go-ahead jumper against Golden State.
