Kelley L Cox-USA TODAY Sports

New team, new life.

DeMarcus Cousins is set to embark on a journey with the New Orleans Pelicans after over six years spent with the Sacramento Kings, and will do so with a new jersey number.

He'll rock No. 0 after wearing No. 15 at Kentucky and Sac-town. Asked to explain the change, he told The Undefeated's Marc J. Spears:

He arrived in the Big Easy on Tuesday afternoon, and is set to make his Pels debut Thursday against the Houston Rockets.
