Regardless of how you feel about Harrison Barnes returning, please don’t be that person to “I told you so” any time Barnes has a bad game or misses a shot next season. It’s lame. Especially when it’s nothing but crickets every time Barnes plays well. – 9:22 PM

Here’s some quick analysis on the Kings retaining Harrison Barnes. Sacramento will bring back all five members of a starting lineup that played an NBA-high 900 minutes together for a 48-win team. Not a splashy wing upgrade, but not a downgrade. theathletic.com/4654616/2023/0… – 9:11 PM

For people somehow upset about trading the #24 pick now, the Kings would be lucky to have whoever they selected there turn into the player Harrison Barnes is. – 9:01 PM

Quick piece of cap nerditry: Looks like league anticipated potential shenanigans with trade eligibility on extensions; my read of the doc is that players like Harrison Barnes and Nikola Vucevic that just signed three-year extensions are NOT trade eligible; won’t change til 7/1/24 pic.twitter.com/HiyfX2KYAr – 8:53 PM

More on this storyline
Sam Amick: The Harrison Barnes deal with the Kings has a 10 percent trade kicker, a source with knowledge of the deal tells @TheAthletic. It’s three years, $54 million for him to return to the Kings. ESPN first reported. -via Twitter @sam_amick / June 29, 2023
Bobby Marks: Sacramento still has flexibility this offseason after the Harrison Barnes extension. Options include: 1. Using $18M in room and also bring back Trey Lyles; 2. A combination of renegotiating Domantas Sabonis contract, bringing back Lyles, use remaining room and also the $7.7M room midlevel. 3. Act as a team over the cap -via Twitter @BobbyMarks42 / June 29, 2023
The Sacramento Kings want to re-sign forward Trey Lyles, who was a key rotation player last season. First, Sacramento will have to figure out what it’s doing with Harrison Barnes in free agency – who could command an average annual salary in the high teens – and a possible Domantas Sabonis renegotiation and extension, as noted by colleague Yossi Gozlan on HoopsHype. -via HoopsHype / June 29, 2023
