5 months early? So an early-second trimester fetus? I have my doubts...
That it will survive. I didn't check the story, so I'm assuming PG_AB is reporting it correctly. No way in hell can a 4 month old fetus survive outside of the womb.
Not so sure. How many teams would kowtow to his every demand? How many fanbase would be so forgiving of his behaviour? If he goes to BOS as it had been reported, the fanbase there would have him for lunch after the first 10 games. They would never go along with his on/off court antics.
Also moving around isn't always a good move. Look at Dwight, for example...
There have been cases of child surviving, but its rare.

Who cares? He has the potential to be an all-time great big if he moves to a real team. I'm a firm believer that Cousins, if put in a good situation, would grow the **** up. Or he can rot away in the NBA's worst franchise. It's a no-brainer to me.
According to Wikipedia, even at 5 months, the chance of survival is 0%. I honestly can't see how survival is possible, let alone any kind of normal development. The brain is still a smooth lump of nerve cells at that point.

And I think that would be a mistake. Throwing away a potentially elite career for more money, when you're making 150m+.
I guess it depends if you think one's 'character' can change. Popovic doesn't think so. In his infamous lecture he says about the players: "They am who they am". As in, he doesn't believe players' characters and tendencies will change. And when it's 2 seconds on the clock and the game on the line, it will show up on the court. Hence he'll always pick character over talent.
