Washington Wizards Free Agency 2016: The Case Against Harrison Barnes

Harrison Barnes has been anointed something he’s not for more than five years now. In 2010, as an incoming freshman at UNC, he became the first player of his kind to be named to the Associated Press’ pre-season 1st-team All-America. Believe it or not, he was even dubbed the next Kobe Bryant

After two solid, yet unspectacular years in Chapel Hill, Barnes fell to the sixth pick in the 2012 Draft and right into the laps of the Golden State Warriors, and was again considered the missing piece to the puzzle.
