NBA ALL-STAR WEEKEND


February 14, 2014


Harrison Barnes


NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA

Q.  What's the most fun aspect of All‑Star weekend?
HARRISON BARNES:  Well just being around other players.  You compete against these guys all the time, but this is a chance to sit and talk with these guys.  A lot of guys to talk to about their experiences.

Q.  What opponent are you looking forward to playing against?
HARRISON BARNES:  I wouldn't say there's one particular person.  Probably just the guys in my draft class, since we all came in together.

Q.  Do you have any pregame superstitions?
HARRISON BARNES:  No.  Especially not for this game.

Q.  If you weren't a NBA player, what would you be doing as a career?
HARRISON BARNES:  If I wasn't a NBA player I would be a senior in college right now.  So I would be finishing up my degree.

Q.  Have you ever thought about going back and working on that ever do it on‑line?
HARRISON BARNES:  Yeah, I'm trying to work on on‑line classes right now.  But there's a certain number of classes that I can do and then I have to go to summer school.  I will have to wait until I'm done with my career.  Hopefully, I'll be a 35 year old guy sitting with these 21 year olds trying to get my degree.

Q.  How important is that to you?
HARRISON BARNES:  I love the University of North Carolina and I think getting a degree is important.

Q.  Even though you're doing what you want as a pro, is there a part of you that does miss that college experience?
HARRISON BARNES:  There is.  I do say that college is the best time in somebody's life and just going for two years, but college was so fun.
