Forward Harrison Barnes saw his streak of 364 consecutive NBA games come to an abrupt close on Tuesday, after he reported an ankle injury suffered when he woke up from a pre-game nap.
The unexpected mishap forced Barnes to be ruled out of his team’s matchup scheduled for the same night, snapping a run that had spanned every regular-season contest since his last absence more than three seasons ago. His string of 364 straight appearances had been one of the league’s longest active streaks.
Details on the severity of the ankle issue were not immediately released, and a timetable for Barnes’ return has yet to be announced.
