LOS ANGELES – Harrison Barnes started to crack a smile at a Team USA practice in Las Vegas once he heard Marreese Speights’ name come up.
Barnes and Speights served as two of Golden State’s complementary pieces on a Warriors team that won a title two years ago and set a record for wins last year before signing with the Mavericks and Clippers, respectively, this summer.
“Love Mo,” Barnes said. “He was right next to my locker every day at Golden State. He’s a great guy. I love the energy that he brings to the game.
