Harrison Barnes has eyes set on another 'bucket-list' basketball experience

Posted Apr 22, 2018
Harrison Barnes would like another shot at the U.S. national team and a bigger role than he had in the 2016 Olympics. Which was virtually no role at all, at least when it came to playing during games. He's going to get that opportunity. "Fingers crossed," Barnes said of making a bigger impact on the national team than when he was essentially the 12th man in 2016. (Dallas Morning News)
