Goes to locker room
Barlow exited to the locker room during the first quarter of Tuesday's game against the Spurs with an undisclosed injury, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.

Holding down starting spot
Barlow finished with 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and three steals over 28 minutes during Sunday's 114-98 loss to the Celtics.
Analysis
As long as Paul George remains suspended, Barlow appears to be locked into the starting position at power forward. However, the fourth-year forward is averaging just 7.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 0.9 blocks in 27.0 minutes per game over his last seven outings, so he's not seeing a lot of usage in the first unit.

Muted effort in win
Barlow chipped in nine points (4-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal across 31 minutes during Thursday's 124-117 win over the Heat.
Analysis
This was another quiet showing for Barlow, but the minutes were at least encouraging -- he's been playing more while Paul George is serving his suspension. Over his last five games, Barlow is averaging 5.4 points and 3.2 rebounds in 26.1 minutes per contest.
