Talented Barnes happy to be back with Heels

Posted Nov 26, 2011
Harrison Barnes knew he wasn't ready to play for pay last spring. And with every day the NBA lockout lasts, his decision to remain at North Carolina looks better and better. On Friday, despite being in early foul trouble and playing just 24 minutes, he scored a season-high 21 points and grabbed five rebounds as North Carolina cruised to an 87-62 win over South Carolina.
