Barnes is in the starting lineup at small forward for Tuesday's matchup against the Timberwolves.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes is replacing rookie Patrick McCaw in the lineup. It will be his fifth start since signing with the Warriors. Coach Steve Kerr likely made this decision based on how the team will match up against the Timberwolves' lineup. Kevin Durant is expected to return Saturday against the Pelicans, so both Barnes and McCaw will presumably take a big hit in minutes.
