Barnes describes Macon - That’s my guy, that’s always been my guy. He’s always been in my life, giving me mentorship, on and off the floor. That wisdom. I love hanging with the guy, and he always gets me better. Everytime I train with him, I feel I get better immediately
— Scottie Barnes - Toronto Raptors
