Anthony Davis plans on taking an active role in the Pelicans' pitch to DeMarcus Cousins in free agency.

“I hope so," said Davis about whether Cousins will re-sign. "That’s a decision he has to make. I’m pretty confident that he’ll stay. From what I hear, he plans on it. But I’m going to keep selling the dream here. I’ll be very involved — I want him here.”

Cousins suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in late January.
