Barnes registered eight points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 22 minutes during Friday's 117-116 loss to the Hornets.
Barnes continues to deliver modest production, scoring fewer than 15 points for the fourth straight game. During that span, he is averaging just 9.3 points and 4.3 rebounds in 25.0 minutes per game. His spot in the starting five appears relatively safe, but as we have seen recently, he is not playing what might be considered typical starter's minutes.

Spurs' Harrison Barnes: Puts up donut in Monday's loss
Rotowire
Barnes had zero points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and one rebound in 20 minutes during Monday's 111-106 loss to Philadelphia.
Barnes was unable to tally a single point for the 12th time in his 13-year NBA career as he failed to knock down each of his five field-goal attempts, all of which came from beyond the arc. He isn't expected to be the focal point of the Spurs' offense due to the presence of Victor Wembanyama Devin Vassell, but San Antonio could've done with a bigger scoring output from Barnes in Monday's narrow loss. Barnes will look to get on track against the Knicks on Christmas Day.

Barnes has been heavily criticized this season since he's not producing at a high level despite being one of the most experienced players on the Spurs roster, but he certainly made an impact in this game. The veteran forward recorded season-high marks in both points and rebounds en route to his first double-double in 2024-25.

Barnes finished with two points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds across 29 minutes during Monday's 106-101 loss to the Rockets.
Barnes was invisible in the loss, demonstrating why he cannot be trusted as a viable fantasy asset.
