Below, we see DeMarcus Cousins getting emotional as he was taking the time to say "goodbye" to the city of Sacramento, and "thank you" to his supporters in the city, on Monday, after being traded from the Kings to the New Orleans Pelicans.

There's no question that Cousins, a three-time All-Star, could be an issue in the locker room at times, but he was also very active in the community of Sacramento, and helped to make it a better place, without advertising it a whole lot.

It seemed like he genuinely loved Sacramento, and a large part of that city loved him in return.

Hopefully, Cousins will have similar love for New Orleans.
