Barnes is expected to move back to the bench for Wednesday's tilt with the Suns, Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes started Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves and posted a very solid line of 12 points, six rebounds, four assists and a steal across 26 minutes. However, the Warriors appear to like the matchup with Patrick McCaw instead, who will replace Barnes in the starting five. That said, with Kevin Durant (knee), Andre Iguodala (rest) and Draymond Green (rest) all sitting out, Barnes should still see a pretty big workload off the bench despite the demotion, so his value shouldn't take a huge hit.
