    uh oh!

    A firm injury diagnosis on Kevin Durant is not expected before Wednesday, but the Golden State Warriors have already lined up Matt Barnes as a potential Durant fill-in, the veteran swingman confirmed to ESPN.

    Sources told ESPN that the Warriors, in the wake of the hyperextended left knee Durant suffered Tuesday night at Washington, quickly reached out to Barnes and made arrangements to sign him later this week.

    Barnes told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne that he will sign a rest-of-the-season deal with Golden State, as opposed to a 10-day contract.
    "It's a dream come true!" Barnes told The Undefeated's Marc J. Spears. "I feel like I helped start something in '07, and now I'm coming back to help finish it."

    In an Instagram post late Tuesday night, Barnes called this "the happiest day of my life" after the birth of his children.

    How corny.
    The happiest day of his life? That Durant got injured so he could be signed, while the rest of the warriors are in a somber mood..

    redeem himself? did you not see what happened to barnes last year in the first round? Barns was only successful due to Splitter not spacing the floor and Jordan in the paint. Once Splitter was gone, barnes has been getting killed ever since.

    Durant is only out for a month or so, so this signing helps them get deeper.

    Happiest day of his life.

    I guess it's better than the day he found out Derek Fisher was raw dogging his exwife

    Great signing for their 2nd unit, tbh..he has developed some point-forward skills, too, so he should be a great fit with Curry/Thompson..

    Matt Barnes, DWest, Raymond..... will that be enough to get Durbeta a spine?

    McGee seems to have gotten one after 5-6 years of being a clown
