The overhaul of the Dallas Mavericks roster continued Wednesday night as Harrison Barnes was traded to the Sacramento Kings.
The extra bit of oddity this time around for the Mavs -- news of the deal broke during the second half of their 99-93 win over the Charlotte Hornets, a game Barnes played 26 minutes in.
Here's how Twitter reacted to the news of the deal:
📷SB Nation📷Harrison Barnes just got traded to the Kings, per @wojespn He's currently sitting on the Mavs bench. This is awkward.

📷Mark CubanYou have been first class on the court and off. Your voice and actions in the community have made a difference Thank you HB
📷kingjames📷So let me guess this is cool cause they had to do what was best for the franchise right??? Traded this man while he was literally playing in the game and had ZERO idea. I’m not knocking who traded him because it’s a business and you have to do what you feel what’s best but I just want this narrative to start to get REAL/CHANGE and not when a player wants to be traded or leaves a Franchise that he’s a selfish/ungrateful player but when they trade you, release , waive, cut etc etc it’s best for them! I’m ok with both honestly, truly am. Just call a ♠️ a ♠️!!

📷Damon R. MarxRick Carlisle on Harrison Barnes: “I had a chance to speak to him before everyone got into the locker room. I thanked him for over 21/2 great years of being a model pro and being one of the most improved players in the game. And so I’m going to miss him an awful lot.”
