Harrison Barnes, Cole Anthony Listed Among Ten NBA Players on Verge of a Breakthrough

Posted Nov 4, 2021
Cole Anthony is averaging 18.7 points and 5.4 assists while shooting 40 percent from 3. The encouraging sign for Magic fans wondering whether Anthony is for real is that he got progressively better last season. At 29 years old, Harrison Barnes is the old geezer of this list. But moving from 16.1 points to 23.3 points per game makes him a worthy addition. (The Ringer)
