Chansky’s Notebook: Barnes Is Noble

Posted Apr 17, 2023
Currently, five Tar Heels are still alive in the NBA playoffs, with mixed results. The biggest surprise, perhaps, is Harrison Barnes of the Sacramento Kings, who left UNC after the 2012 Elite 8 season and was the No. 7 pick by Golden State, winning an NBA ring in 2015. He was a starter for the Warriors where he averaged around 10 points per season. (Chapelboro.com)
