Mavericks’ Barnes, Bogut to visit old friends in Warriors

Andrew Bogut and Harrison Barnes return to the site of last year's ultimate failure in the NBA Finals when the Dallas Mavericks visit the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. Bogut and Barnes were members of the Golden State team that won a championship in 2014-15 and came within one victory of a repeat last June against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The two frontcourt starters were salary-cap casualties in the wake of the runner-up finish when the Warriors exhausted basically all available funds on signing free agent Kevin Durant away from the Oklahoma Thunder for $54.3 million over two years.
