The terms of the deal are undisclosed but Yahoo! Sports is reporting that the contract is for two years and is worth $3.6 million.
Barnes provides more depth at the small forward position as he should be backing up Ron Artest and Lamar Odom. He can produce when called upon, evidenced by his 6.4 PPG and 4.7 RPG during the 2010 NBA Playoffs.
