Tar Heels in NBA: Harrison Barnes scores 17, has Kings off to best start in 18 years

Posted Dec 5, 2022
Harrison Barnes’ first four seasons were full of frustration as the Sacramento Kings never were able to have sustained success. But, with his help, that’s changing. Barnes scored 17 points and three 3-pointers with six rebounds Sunday as the Kings beat the Bulls 110-101 for their best 22-game start since the 2004-05 season when he was 12 years old.
