Harrison Barnes answers head coach's challenge in Kings' win over Blazers


When called upon, answered with authority. A veteran presence and a leader on and off the court, Barnes delivered a big game Wednesday night in the Kings' season-opening 124-121 win over the Portland Trail Blazers at Moda Center. Scoring a career-high 36, Barnes' 3-point shooting helped stave off a late Blazers comeback attempt. (NBC Sports)
