Barnes arrives for physical with Suns

From Staff Reports

Free agent forward Matt Barnes arrived in Phoenix on Monday and completed much of the physical required to clear the way for him to join the Suns.

The 6-foot-7 former Golden State Warrior will finish the physical this morning and then sign a one-year contract which, according to league sources, will be for the NBA veteran minimum salary.

As a player entering his sixth year in the league, Barnes will earn $998,398. The Suns are responsible for only $797,581 of that total, with the rest paid from a league fund.
