NBA Draft Profiles: Harrison Barnes
Posted Jun 26, 2012
It says a lot that Harrison Barnes scored 17 PPG as a sophomore for the 32-6 Tar Heels yet still was considered somewhat of a disappointment. He scores with ease, possessing what will be one of the better mid-range skill sets in the league when he arrives. His well-documented strong work ethic is a great asset to have as a young player that will help him develop quicker.
