Well, it looks like DeMarcus Cousins is well on his way to a return to action.
The Golden State Warriors center has not yet played in a game this season while recovering from a torn Achilles tendon, but Boogie showed plenty of athleticism Friday while taking on teammate Kevin Durant in a game of 1-on-1 after practice.
It was all fun and games until, on the last possession of the duel, Cousins caught Durant with a pump fake and then obliterated him with a vicious dunk that put Durant on his back.
Boogie called game.

Durant took it in stride, laying on the ground with a smile on his face.
“He beat me today,” Durant told ESPN. “He beat me today, but I live to fight another day.”
As for the rest of the NBA … you’ve been warned. Boogie is on his way back.
