Twitter Reacts To Harrison Barnes Being Traded Mid-Game
This is a rarity even in the NBA, where trades before the deadline could happen out of nowhere. During last night’s game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Charlotte Hornets, Harrison Barnes was subbed out of the game in the fourth quarter, shortly before news broke that he had been traded to the Sacramento Kings.
Barnes was informed, while sitting on the bench, just coming off the court, in full Mavs gear and looked sad.

NBA Twitter also thought that the Mavs could have at least waited until after the game and went to work:
