Harrison Barnes Scores 20, but USA Basketball Falls to Australia in Exhibition

Posted Aug 24, 2019
After more than a decade of dominance, Australia stunned the USA 98-94 in a tune-up exhibition game before the FIBA World Cup. It was the first loss since 2006 for the American national team in a major competition. Overshadowed in the loss was a terrific night for Harrison Barnes, who scored 20 points and grabbed six rebounds, hitting 7 of 12 attempts. (Heels Maven)
