Harrison Barnes relishing Olympic opportunity

Posted Jul 28, 2016
For the better part of the last two weeks, every time Harrison Barnes walked into a locker room, he did a double-take. The uniform in his locker says “Barnes” but the number on it says ‘8’ and the team on the front reads “USA.” “You’ve got to take a moment that this is so crazy,” Barnes said on Wednesday at a Team USA practice ahead of next month’s Olympics.
