But what makes a star? Having to score over 20 ppg?

I always come back to Kawhi Leonard as the new example of what a star can be. Leonard was never really a big scorer until this past season, but was definitely considered by most to be a star because of his great defense and rebounding. It's obviously a long shot for Barnes to reach Leonard's level, but he is the closest I'd compare to what Barnes could become.

The main issue isn't whether Barnes makes his shots anyway. His ball handling is what might eventually hold him back from that next tier.

Still too early to judge though. We'll know what we have come January.
