Harrison Barnes won’t cut his hair or shave until Kings reach .500, so he’s going to be hairy

Good luck with this one.

Have you noticed Harrison Barnes looking a little hairy lately?

There’s a perfectly good explanation for that: per ESPN’s Tim MacMahon, the Sacramento Kings forward vowed he wouldn’t cut his hair or shave until the team hits the .500 mark or when the season ends.

What’s more, he started this hair bet up in the middle of December.

The Kings head into the All-Star break 21-33. You never know when a win streak can pop up, but I reaaaaallly have my doubts that Sacramento can cure what ails the squad to get all the way back to .500. This is what Barnes looked like in mid-December:
