Talking about his college career, Cousins initially indicated and intention to attend the University of Alabama at Birmingham(UAB) in 2008, but gave up because he would not have been coached by Mike Davis, and eventually committed to the University of Kentucky and coach of the team John Calipari, who is one of the most successful basketball coaches in the NCAA, was very enthusiastic about his student; he thought that Demarcus was one of the long most talented players he had ever coached. In 2010, Cousins achieved an average of 15.1 points, 9.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game, and was the Southeastern Conference leader.

At the beginning of 2014 in a defeat against the Houston Rockets, he railed against the referee and received a game suspension and $20,000 fine. After a few months, during the win against the Minnesota Timberwolves, he received his sixth technical foul of the season resulting in a one-game suspension, so missed the last game of the season against the Phoenix Suns. However, Cousins was subsequently named to the All-NBA Second Team (2015, 2016) and NBA All-Star (2015, 2016).
