Description:

This Jim Barnett basketball card is number 108 in a series of 264 manufactured by the Topps Company Inc. for the 1973-1974 National Basketball Association season. The front of the card has a posed image of the Golden State Warriors guard. The card’s reverse features a small cartoon image illustrating the factoid that “Jim spent part of his childhood in Shanghai, China."

Barnett, selected 8th by the Boston Celtics in the 1966 draft, played for seven teams during his 11-year career that ended in 1977. Nicknamed "Crazy Horse" for his frenzied style of play, Barnett has been a television analyst for the Golden State Warriors since 1986.
