Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes runs counter to an NBA trend, but Rick Carlisle doesn't mind

Posted Nov 26, 2018
Harrison Barnes runs counter to the new generation of the NBA in that he embraces a 15-foot jump shot that he can make in his sleep. Not that he can't make the 3-pointers that everybody is in love with. He made five of eight from beyond the arc Wednesday against Brooklyn. And he can still get to the rim when the opportunity arises in this era of 3-pointers and layups. (Dallas Morning News)
