Harrison Barnes’ mother: He ‘wants to ful?ll’ goals
Posted Mar 30, 2011
When asked if [Harrison Barnes] had played his final game in a North Carolina uniform, Barnes gave no indication which way he was leaning, only that he was living in the moment that visibly consumed him. “I’m not thinking about the NBA,” he said. Shirley Barnes said when the time is right, her son will make his decision. “Harrison needs to heal from this loss,” she said. “We haven’t really talked about it, honestly. It’s not pressing to us.”
