Warriors' Matt Barnes: Plays only four minutes in return from foot injury

Barnes (foot) logged four minutes in Monday's 106-94 win over the Jazz in Game 1 of the series, providing zero points (0-1 FG) and one assist.

Barnes attracted some attention prior to the series after stating that he'd have rather faced the Clippers than the Jazz, but that may end up being the extent of the storylines surrounding him in the second round. After missing the Warriors' last six games with a right foot sprain, Barnes appears to find himself on the fringe of the team's rotation, as he saw roughly the same amount of playing time Monday as lightly-used bench forwards Patrick McCaw and James McAdoo.
