Most Golden State Warriors fans will not shy away from saying goodbye to Harrison Barnes, as his departure opened up the door for Kevin Durant. But, his contributions to both the Warriors NBA championship in 2015 and their 73-win season this past season should not be forgotten. This summer, Barnes was a restricted free agent […]

Harrison Barnes signed a max deal with the Dallas Mavericks worth $95 million over four years. After the signing, the Mavs decided to take a picture with Barnes and it came along with a little humor on the situation.

At first glance, the photo released by Nike looks as casual as other Team USA pictures in the past. It’s a picture that shows the current group of players to represent the country, donning the uniform and letting the world know, they are ready to defend their gold medal. Oh say can you see, America.We […]

Almost every summer, the Dallas Mavericks find themselves in conversations as a potential destination of one or two big name free agents. However, they seem to consistently miss out in the end. This year’s free agency period is no different, with names such as Al Horford and Mike Conley, among others, being thrown out in […]

Harrison Barnes leaving the Golden State Warriors to join the Dallas Mavericks gave the Mavs the breath of fresh air it needed in free agency.

He will now join the vastly improved Blazers roster which features the dynamic backcourt of Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum. Ezeli spent the last 3 seasons in Oakland and contributed to their Championship in […]

This time last year, the Dallas Mavericks thought they had acquired vital piece to their championship puzzle in DeAndre Jordan. They got a verbal agreement that he would sign a four-year, $80 million max contract. The only issue was that Jordan got cold feet and reneged. As Hassan Whiteside has yet to sign his new […]

The Dallas Mavericks have reached an agreement with restricted free agent Harrison Barnes, for a four-year, $94 million dollar contract. This comes right after Kevin Durant made a commitment to sign with the Warriors, after several team meetings over the 4th of July weekend. Barnes, the Warriors’ starting small forward the last few years, is […]

The impending restricted free agency of Golden State Warriors small forward Harrison Barnes was a hot topic throughout the 2015-16 season. Now that the time is here, and the Warriors failed to capture a second consecutive championship, Barnes may finally be leaving the Bay. According to Marc Stein, multiple ESPN sources expect the Dallas Mavericks to sign Barnes to […]

The Golden State Warriors have officially extended qualifying offers to both Harrison Barnes and Festus Ezeli. In layman terms, it is a one year offer in the amount comparable to their rookie contract terms. By extending qualifying offers to them, the Warriors have made Barnes and Ezeli restricted free agents, and the Warriors will own […]

The next few days, and possibly weeks, will be very trying for Golden State Warriors small forward, Harrison Barnes. After struggling immensely with his jumper in the NBA Finals, Barnes’ stock on the free agent market seems to have fallen sharply, even if that’s not necessarily fair given how small the sample size is. Concerns […]

Golden State Warriors small forward Harrison Barnes announced his preference to stay with the Warriors despite entering as a restricted free agent going into the offseason. The Warriors’ number 7 overall pick in 2012 has had somewhat of a rocky road both on and off the court with the Dubs during this past season, starting when the […]

According to The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Golden State Warriors forward Harrison Barnes has received and accepted an invitation to play with Team USA this summer in the 2016 Olympic Games.

The Cleveland Cavaliers stayed alive with an impressive victory during Monday night’s Game 5, even considering the absence of Draymond Green. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving went off for a combined 82 points, responding to every big play and run by the Warriors. Klay Thompson caught fire from long range, Stephen Curry put up 25, […]

The Warriors, like seemingly the entire NBA for teams not from Oklahoma, will pursue Kevin Durant in free agency this offseason. Although it’s likely a long shot for Durant to end up with Golden State, Harrison Barnes may be collateral damage should KD join the blue and gold. However, a recent report from Sporting News’ […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers weren’t expecting the Golden Sate Warriors to attack them the way they did in Game 1 on Thursday night. The plan wasn’t to get Klay Thompson a bunch of open looks or to get Steph Curry in position to bury the Cavs with a flurry of 3-point bombs. The plan was to attack an imminent defensive […]

The Golden State Warriors are three games away from repeating as NBA champions. They have shattered individual and team records over the past two years, including their 73-win mark this past season. Despite all of these accomplishments, it doesn’t mean the current roster of players are guaranteed to return next season. That would be because […]

As we all know, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in convincing fashion during Game 1. The game may have been close for a full three quarters, but the Warriors pulled away in the fourth quarter behind gutsy performances from Shaun Livingston and Leandro Barbosa.

The Golden State Warriors changed up their lineup for Game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, choosing to start Andre Iguodala over Harrison Barnes.

This one is interesting. Is Warriors center Mo Speights trolling his followers, or speaking out about the future to come? The Los Angeles Lakers are rumored to go after both Harrison Barnes and Festus Ezeli this summer when they become restricted free agents. Speights, while filming his two teammates sitting at a table, made a Snapchat story with […]

The Golden State Warriors guard Leandro Barbosa has found solace in a different type of medicine for injuries. He once tore an ACL in his knee and pushed past conventional medicine to get back on the court and play the level of basketball he is playing now. His younger self earned the nickname the Brazillian […]

It’s no secret that the Golden State Warriors could sign Kevin Durant this offseason. While the Warriors are already explosive with their current core, the prospect of adding the top free agent on the market would just about make Golden State an unstoppable force. To some players on the Warriors’ current roster, they would feel […]

There have been many rumors about the Lakers going after Kevin Durant in free agency. That is relatively unlikely, however, since Durant has said he only wants to play for instant contenders, and Los Angeles is in rebuilding mode now that Kobe Bryant has retired.
