Posted Feb 1, 2011
This is the Harrison Barnes basketball fans expected to see at the beginning of the season. And for North Carolina, he’s emerging at just the right time. The freshman pre-season All-America scored 26 points Tuesday night during the No. 23 Tar Heels’ 106-74 blowout at Boston College – bettering the career-high he set last weekend, and recording back-to-back 20-point games for the first time this season.
