Willie Cauley-Stein viciously swats Harrison Barnes in UK-UNC alumni game (VIDEO)

Published Sep. 15, 2015 4:04 p.m. ET

Golden State Warriors forward Harrison Barnes dominated Sunday night's matchup between University of North Carolina and University of Kentucky alumni at Rupp Arena.

Barnes dropped 39 points in a 122-115 Tar Heel loss, and looked like the best player on a court that also featured DeMarcus Cousins (33 points). 

But it wasn't all pretty for Barnes. Despite his dominance, he was on the receiving end of the play of the night.

After beating Sacramento Kings rookie center Willie Cauley-Stein middle on a slow closeout, Cauley-Stein recovered and, as Barnes went up for a left-handed finish, emphatically swatted the shot.

Whoa. That rookie sure looks ready for the league.
