Cousins took issue with a column written by Bee writer Andy
Furillo.
The story mentioned Cousins' brother Jaleel and cited a
confrontation involving Cousins at a Tampa-area bar last spring.
"Don't ever mention my brother again," a video showed Cousins
saying to Furillo.
"You say whatever the (expletive) you want to say about me, but
don't mention my (expletive) family."
Cousins apologized to the team but not to the reporter in a
statement released by the Kings.

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela has a small fracture in his
left fibula and will miss approximately four to six weeks, the
team announced.
Capela suffered the leg injury during Saturday's game against
the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Capela, 22, has been a key player for the Rockets, who own the
NBA's longest current winning streak with 10 straight victories.
Capela, averaging 11.8 points and eight rebounds, became the
starter after Dwight Howard left as a free agent. (Editing by
