Barnes:
His nickname, "Bad News", came from his frequent off-court problems. These began when he was a senior at Central High School. He was part of a gang that attempted to rob a bank. He was quickly identified as he was wearing his state championship jacket with his name embroidered on the back. His case was handled by the juvenile justice system. In 1972 while playing center for Providence College he attacked a teammate with a tire iron. The college took no action against him. He later plead guilty to assault, paid the victim $10,000 and was placed on probation. He violated probation in October 1976 when an unloaded gun was found in his bag at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport. For this he served 152 days in Rhode Island state prison.[2] Upon release he returned to the Detroit Pistons. He has been arrested for burglary, drug possession, and trespassing.[3] Because of his drug use, his NBA career was cut short and he wound up homeless in San Diego, California in the early 80s. After multiple rehab programs, he started reaching out to youth in South Providence, where he grew up, urging them not to make the same mistakes he had.[4]
In March 2008, Providence College retired his jersey, honoring him along with Ernie DiGregorio and Jimmy Walker. He still holds the school single-game scoring record of 52 points. (Tied with Marshon Brooks) [5]

Truck would need some serious FT help to be a really good #1 option. He could probably get 10 a game if he plays enough. |
