The NBA champion who's mastered the postgame party
Until three weeks ago, 23-year-old Harrison Barnes had never tried alcohol in his life. Although he was clearly getting along just fine without it, the Golden State Warriors forward vowed to celebrate with an adult beverage if his team won the NBA championship, and he did just that.
In the wake of Golden State's victory and the resulting parties, Barnes told Yahoo Sports that he hasn't really felt the need to make up for lost time in the drinking department. But that hasn't stopped the Iowa native, who aced numerous AP courses in high school, from trying to soak up enough champagne knowledge to feed a small country of sommeliers.
