Biography
American basketball player, a guard for the Boston Celtics. An average player, there have been moments in his career where he has shined, but just as many where he has not. One of the shining moments of his career came during the 1994-1995 season when he was playing with the Philadelphia 76'ers. Barros' stellar performance included a 20.6 points-per-game average, as well as a 7.5 assists-per-game average. In addition, he registered his first career triple-double and scored 50 points during one game. His play netted him the NBA's Most Improved Player Award, as well as a position on the All-Star Team. Prior to playing for Philadelphia, Barros was a member of the Seattle Supersonics and Boston College teams.
He is married to his wife, Veronica, and has one son, Jordan. In his spare time, Barros works with the National Kidney Foundation, the Massachusetts Special Olympics, and several other charitable causes. In 1994, he recorded a single entitled "Check It" on the Basketball's Best Kept Secrets album, which was released the same year. Following his NBA career, Barros would like to get involved in broadcasting.
