KosherPelican

As far as I know he is not injured anymore, and his injury has healed prior to the All-Star weekend, but the Kings decided to let him rest until the end of the all-star weekend.

I checked some injury sites and Casspi is probable in some of them and also a "game time decision" in a few.

I hope we will see him play today.

I personally think that this trade is remarkable for the Pelicans but also pretty decent one for the Kings.

I truly don't reckon that the Kings really thought they had a legitimate chance to make DeMarcus Cousins re-sign in their team again, I'm well-aware to the fact that Cousins said he loves Sacramento, but I also think that Cousins loves winning as well, also Vivik wasn't sure he was willing to offer Cousins with a 200 million dollar contract, Kings had to do what they had to do and decided to trade Cousins in order to build for the future and start something new in the city of Sacramento, and we might find this move effective in the far future.

For the Pelicans, this trade could be historic move by the management if it proves to be a success, Cousins and Davis together can be dominating the league, we might see another version of two big men playing well together like we've seen in the past with Timmy and David Robinson, Cousins is indisputably (at least in my opinion) the best center in the league, varied moves in the post, decent rebounder, soft hand from the three-point line or anywhere else on the court, a terrific player who also believes in loyalty, I also believe that if the reminder of this season will go well the Pelicans will be able to re-sign him for more years to come.

As for Omri Casspi, I really likes this guy, last season was his best season in the NBA, where he was shooting supremely from the three-point line, cutting to the basket and making good plays in general for the Kings, also a decent rebounder for his role, not a very good defender but also not a worst one, I sincerely reckon that he is a better player than Solomon Hill almost in every perimeter.

This trade has the potential to make the Pelicans one of the most frightening teams in the Western Conference, also the Pelicans are about 2.5 games behind the eighth spot in the playoffs, it is obviously possible to chase this spot.
