The Sacramento Kings finished as the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference this year, and forward Harrison Barnes has been crucial to that happening. He can guard multiple positions and is a solid 3PT shooter.
In Game 4, though, Harrison Barnes had one of his worst performances in a Sacramento Kings uniform. He finished with 9 points on 3-11 shooting on the evening and missed a crucial game-winner that could have gotten the Sacramento Kings the win. After the game, a lot of fans roasted Harrison Barnes for his unclutch play, with a lot of people posting memes about it.

Some jokingly suggested that he was still playing for the Warriors:

Some were extremely harsh on the forward, with one Twitter user even suggesting that he needs to retire.
As soon as the ball ended up in Harrison Barnes hands Mike brown should’ve been sprinting to the ref to use that timeout

Even though this was clearly an unclutch moment from Harrison Barnes, he will have the chance to show out against the Warriors when they play the Kings in Sacramento in Game 5. Generally, we have seen role players do better on their home floor, and hopefully, that ends up being the case for Harrison Barnes.
Harrison Barnes has averaged 13.0 PPG, 4.3 RPG, and 0.8 APG for the Sacramento Kings in the playoffs thus far, and he has only shot 25% from the 3PT range in the playoffs. He absolutely needs to be better, and we’ll see if he ends up bouncing back.
