Golden State Warriors swingman Matt Barnes suffered a right ankle and foot sprain Saturday night against the New Orleans Pelicans, according to the team's public relations department.

Barnes was subsequently ruled out after his x-rays came back negative.

Since linking up with the defending Western Conference champions, Barnes has averaged 5.
