Harrison Barnes and the Sacramento Kings put on an offensive display over New Orleans

Last Thursday, the Sacramento Kings kept hopes of an NBA Bubble playoff berth alive, thanks in part to a strong performance by swingman and UNC alum, Harrison Barnes in their 140-125 win over the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Black Falcon scored 22 points for the Kings, and along with back-up center Alex Len, led the team with six rebounds, finishing the game with a healthy +/- rating of +10. Barnes often drew the difficult task of guarding emerging star Brandon Ingram, who did score 24 points, but had a woeful +/- of -14.
