His NBA homecoming pulls Harrison Barnes to his past
Posted Oct 17, 2014
Harrison Barnes is a third-year NBA veteran. Yet, when he steps into Wells Fargo Arena, he morphs into a high schooler all over again. The pressure that surrounded him trying to win a second straight state championship is as present as it was in March 2010. Would Ames win? Would it be a memorable game? “It was so much excitement,” Barnes said. “No one ever knew what the next step was going to be.”
