GIF: DeMarcus Cousins day-to-day after spraining ankle vs. Rockets
Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets has proved to be a nightmare for the Sacramento Kings.
Having already lost Rudy Gay to a left Achilles injury in the first quarter, DeMarcus Cousins' night was ended after he rolled over his ankle while driving to the hoop.

Since Cousins was fouled on the play and was unable to shoot his free throws, Aaron Gray stepped in to take them.
The injury looked pretty gruesome, but it didn't take long the Kings to receive good news regarding Cousins' status.
DeMarcus Cousins' x-rays were negative for fracture. Moderate ankle sprain. Listed as day-to-day.

No update will be provided on Counsins' status beyond the day-to-day designation until Thursday, though he did leave the arena in a walking boot and on crutches.
