Although Achilles injuries are tough to recover from, Cousins should not be as affected as much as Kobe was.
Kobe relied on his explosiveness which is what players usually lack after this injury. Cousins can use his body and play below the rim since he doesn’t rely on his first step or quick-twitch movements.
True I didn't consider that. He might be a bit slower but hopefully he comes back the 100% in due time
