Barrett was born in Toronto, Ontario, to Kesha Duhaney and former professional basketball player Rowan Barrett.[1] Early in his childhood, he developed an interest in basketball and played with a mini-hoop in his playroom in France, where his father was playing professional basketball at the time.[2] In the 2005–06 season, he started playing organized basketball in the youth set-up of JDA Dijon Basket.[3] While living in France, Barrett attended a French school but was taught English by his mother.[4] He lived in a number of countries due to his father's career and shot around after games and practices. Barrett additionally played basketball with players his age through the clubs his father was a part of.[5]
His family settled in Mississauga, Ontario in 2008, when his father left professional basketball.[4] While growing up, he was also involved in football, 100 metres sprinting, and the high jump.[6] At age 12, after struggling in a basketball game and coming home crying, Barrett began focusing on basketball instead of football to avoid missing tournaments.[2][6] At that age, he told his father that he wanted to be an NBA All-Star and make the Basketball Hall of Fame.[4] He sometimes trained with Steve Nash, his godfather and father's friend.[7]
Barrett, under the guidance of his father, emerged as one of the best under-12 players in Ontario. He attended Horizon Jeunesse in Clarkson, Mississauga, leading his school team to a city title for Mississauga French elementary schools, where he was named most valuable player (MVP) despite facing older opponents. Barrett also played for the Regional Elite Development Academy (REDA) under-12 program on the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) circuit, facing many teams from the United States.[8] When he was 12, he was identified by the Ontario Basketball Association as one of the best players in his age group, and he consequently trained with the Canada Basketball junior academy, through which he competed for the Ontario provincial team. By age 15, Barrett was generally playing the point guard position.[2] On August 3, 2014, he scored 37 points and grabbed seven rebounds in a 93–53 win over Quebec at an under-15 provincial tournament.[9] Through grades seven and eight, Barrett attended École Secondaire Jeunes Sans Frontières, a French language school in Brampton.[10]
High school career
St. Marcellinus (2014–2015)
"While we don't often give praise in the early stages of a player's career (ninth grade), Rowan Barrett Jr (2019 6'4 wing) is proving to be the exception—a cold blooded killer, still out for blood. Special."
— Elias Sbiet, analyst for recruiting website North Pole Hoops, on Barrett in 2014.[11]
Barrett began high school at St. Marcellinus Secondary School in Mississauga, whilst competing for the Brampton Warriors AAU team through the REDA.[12] After his 27-point effort for St. Marcellinus against Bill Crothers Secondary School on October 9, 2014, Canadian recruiting website North Pole Hoops labeled him "special" despite only being in his first year.[11]
In February 2015, he was named MVP of the Guy Vetrie Memorial tournament after scoring 41 points and a making the game-winner for REDA in a 74–72 win over BTB Academy.[13] In April, Barrett was invited to the Region of Peel Secondary Schools Athletic Association (ROPSSAA) all-star game.[14] At the game, he was recognized as the best prospect in the ROPSSAA.[15] In the same month, Barrett scored a game-high 25 points in the Futures Game at the BioSteel All-Canadian Basketball Game, which featured top grade 9 and 10 players across Canada.[16][17]
Montverde Academy (2015–2018)
Freshman year (2015–16)
In September 2015, one week after touring top prep schools in the United States, Barrett announced that he would leave St. Marcellinus.[18] Later in the month, he transferred to Montverde Academy, a school in Montverde, Florida, with a decorated basketball program.[19] Barrett made the decision in order to "take his game to another level" but described the transition as "rough".[20] On December 7, he chipped in a team-high 18 points in a nationally televised game versus Huntington Prep School.[21] Barrett erupted for 31 points on December 21, in a loss to Chino Hills High School at the City of Palms Classic quarterfinal.[22] On April 15, 2016, he tallied 22 points and eight rebounds at the 2016 Jordan Brand Classic International Game, earning game MVP honors.[23] At the end of the season, after leading Montverde Academy in scoring, Barrett was named to the MaxPreps Freshman All-American First Team.[24]
Sophomore year (2016–17)
"I love the kid. I think he's really, really talented. He can handle the ball, can get to the basketball at will; he's tough, he's competitive ... he can go both ways, offensively. Defensively he's not afraid to guard the best player on the other team. As a coach you can't ask for much more, which is why he's the camp MVP."
Entering 2016–17, Barrett's sophomore season for Montverde, he was among 20 players named to the USA Today High School Sports All-USA Preseason Team.[25] In November 2016, he was named to the Naismith Prep Player of the Year Award watch list.[26] In December, Barrett led Montverde to a City of Palms Classic title, scoring a team-best 15 points in the finals against Memphis East High School, and received tournament MVP honors.[27] He recorded 21 points on January 16, 2017, in a 73–67 win over Bishop Montgomery High School, to help his team win the Spalding Hoophall Classic.[28] In February, Barrett garnered MVP accolades at Basketball Without Borders, a three-day camp during NBA All-Star Weekend.[29] He joined the World Select Team at the 2017 Nike Hoop Summit in April, posting nine points and two steals in 20 minutes.[30][31] Barrett finished the season averaging 22 points and 7 rebounds per game in high school, being tabbed National Sophomore of the Year by MaxPreps and making the Naismith All-American Third Team.[32][33]
Junior year (2017–18)
On July 31, 2017, Barrett reclassified to the 2018 class because he believed he was "ready to move up and to be in college a year earlier."[34] Entering the 2017–18 season, he was named to the USA Today High School Sports All-USA Preseason Team.[35] In his season opener on November 28, 2017, Barrett led Montverde, ranked the No. 1 team in the nation by MaxPreps, with 29 points in a 97–55 win over The Rock School.[36] On January 11, 2018, in a nationally televised match-up with Orlando Christian Prep, he scored 24 points.[37] Barrett posted 22 points and 10 rebounds on January 15 to defeat Mater Dei High School at the Spalding Hoophall Classic.[38] On March 23, he played in the Signature All-Canadian Showcase, which featured 24 top Canadian prospects.[39] Later in the month, Barrett took part in the 2018 McDonald's All-American Boys Game, where he scored 26 points.[40]
In March 2018, Barrett was awarded the prestigious Morgan Wooten National Player of the Year award for "displaying outstanding character, showing leadership and embodying the values of a student athlete".[41] One of the ways Barrett exhibited these attributes was by being involved in the Basketball Buddies Program of Montverde Academy, where he was in charge of mentoring young basketball athletes with their basketball skills, as well as advising them on how to manage their academics.[42]
In the 2017–18 season, he led the undefeated Montverde team to the Geico National boys’ basketball championship, recording 25 points and 15 rebounds in the championship game.[43]
Barrett scored a game-high 20 points to go along with nine rebounds, six assists and five steals at the 2018 Nike Hoop Summit and was named MVP.[44]

On August 16, 2017, Barrett narrowed down to five schools: Duke, Arizona, Oregon, Kentucky, and Michigan.[49] On November 10, 2017, he announced that he would be attending Duke for the 2018–2019 season.[50] Commenting on his decision, he said: "It feels like home. And obviously they have a great coach ... I love Coach K. I've been watching Duke since I was really young."[51]
On November 6, in his first regular season game, he posted 33 points and six assists against second-ranked Kentucky at the Champions Classic, breaking the Duke freshman scoring record in a debut.[52] On December 3, 2018, Barrett was named Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) rookie of the week.[53] Barrett tallied his first double-double on December 5, with 27 points and 15 rebounds versus Hartford.[54] On December 10, 2018, Barrett earned ACC player and freshman of the week honors for the second time.[55] On January 28, 2019, Barrett earned his third ACC freshman of the week honor.[56] On February 9, Barrett scored 26 points in an 81–71 victory against Virginia.[57] On February 17, Barrett recorded 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists in a 94–78 win over North Carolina State.[58] It was the fourth time in Duke history (second time under Mike Krzyzewski's tenure as head coach) where a player recorded a triple-double for the team.[59][60] On February 25, 2019, Barrett was again named ACC freshman of the week for the fourth consecutive time.[61] At the end of Duke's regular season, Barrett was named a member of both the Sporting News' All-American First Team, ACC All-Freshman team and the All-ACC First Team alongside his teammate Zion Williamson.[62] Barrett was named USA Today's Player of the Year.[63]

On June 20, 2019, the New York Knicks drafted Barrett with the third overall pick in the 2019 NBA draft with the nickname "Maple Mamba" because of his playstyle resemblance to Kobe Bryant.[67] On July 3, Barrett officially signed with the Knicks.[68] On October 23, 2019, Barrett made his debut in the NBA, starting in a 111–120 loss to the San Antonio Spurs with 21 points, five rebounds, two assists and two steals.[69] On December 17, Barrett scored a then career-high 27 points with six rebounds, an assist and a steal in a 143–120 win over the Atlanta Hawks.[70] Barrett came down with a sprained ankle in a game against the Phoenix Suns on January 16, 2020.[71] On March 2, Barrett tied his career-high 27 points by hitting a clutch layup before the game ended.
