Cousins, Kings survive Wolves despite Love's 43

DeMarcus Cousins recorded his eighth straight double-double with 35 points and 15 rebounds but picked up his 16th technical foul of the season late in the fourth quarter of the Kings' 106-103 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night.

By NBA rules, Cousins must sit out Sacramento's final regular season game at home against Phoenix on Wednesday.

J.J. Barea missed a 3-pointer and Kevin Love was off on a 16-foot jumper in the final 20 seconds for the Wolves.

Love had 43 points and 11 rebounds for Minnesota after sitting out Friday's 112-110 win over Houston because of a hyperextended right elbow.
