Breaking down Harrison Barnes at the Jayhawk Invitational
Posted May 4, 2009
Harrison Barnes is extremely athletic and long. Has a great vertical and often plays above the rim. Threw down a pair of vicious one-handed dunks in transition. Has a good stroke from all areas of the court. Showed a nice touch from the outside, including a 22-foot three that beat the first-half buzzer. Has quick hands that led to a pair of second-half steals. Unselfish player that isn't afraid to find his teammates. When he decides to penetrate, he has a quick first step. Nice touch when finishing inside.
