DeMarcus Cousins was left high-fiving himself during Sunday's Sacramento Kings game against Portland after being left hanging by teammate Rajon Rondo.
It happened just before halftime as Kings teammate Seth Curry was shooting free throws. After Curry sank his first, Cousins slapped Curry's hand, then reached out to Rondo, but was left hung out to dry. After giving Rondo ample time to come around to him, Cousins gave up and high-fived himself.
It didn't look intentional on Rondo's part, as he wasn't looking in Cousins' direction and probably didn't see him. Still, it's interesting (and sometimes hilarious) to see how players handle that situation.
