Posted Feb 13, 2020
If you’ve wondered why Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes has been rocking a longer beard these days, there’s a method to the madness. Barnes said he won’t be shaving his beard or cutting his hair until Sacramento gets back to a .500 record. The Kings entered Wednesday’s game in Dallas with a 21-32 record, so it won’t happen anytime soon. (NBC Sports)
