From an outside perspective, maybe so, but for 76ers fans who had to watch him play out a full five-year, $180 million max contract? Yeah, this one felt personal.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Tobias-Harris-playing-the-76ers.jpg"><figcaption>Bill Streicher-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><h2><b>Philadelphia 76ers have plenty of reasons to dislike Tobias Harris</b></h2><p>Originally acquired to be the missing piece of a starting lineup that featured Ben Simmons, JJ Redick, Jimmy Butler, and Joel Embiid – remember them? – Harris was famously prioritized over Butler in free agency and earned a max contract to remain in Philadelphia long-term. From there, Harris refused to be content with playing a 3-and-D role as a combo forward, instead thinking of himself as a sort of mini-Carmelo Anthony while consistently underwhelming when the 76ers needed him to step up.</p><p>Harris is the only player to earn as much money as he has through his career – <a href="https://www.spotrac.com/nba/player/_/id/8070/tobias-harris" rel="noopener">$273.9 million, if you can believe it</a> – to never make an All-Star game, an All-NBA list, or win any award at all, from an All-Rookie team to an All-Defense team. Goodness, Harris never even turned in a 90-50-40 season in Philadelphia, the mark of an elite shooter, as he has never connected on 90 percent of his free throws over a full season, period.</p><p>So what, you may ask, is Harris’ legacy in the City of Brotherly Love? Well, two words really sum it up: wasted potential. Harris never lived up to the contract the 76ers gave him, was never a better player than Butler during even his best season, and the team’s GM, be that Elton Brand or Daryl Morey, never even cashed out on whatever value he had to make a playoff push with more complementary firepower. Throw that in with his empty stats and laissez-faire attitude, and it’s safe to say Harris will be booed every time he faces off against the 76ers for the foreseeable future, if not the rest of his career.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Jalen Duren was tough to stop as a rebounder. Isaiah Stewart was also physical down low (no, not that way), which led to plenty of Detroit OREBs and Philly misses at the rim. Malik Beasley and Simone Fontecchio pitched in from the wings, as well. Harris didn’t do a lot of that but he did provide some key scoring in the second half that helped the Pistons win.</p><p>Harris tried to get his typical post-up buckets but possessions ending in those shots went nowhere. He also didn’t let a lot of threes fly, missing all three of his attempts. There were a handful of nice plays, like blocking a Kyle Lowry jumper and dunking through a foul, and he put up a strong stat line of 18 points and 14 rebounds. Sixers fans won’t miss him but he left them something to ponder as their team’s season gets even sadder.</p><h2><b>Maxey makes ’em go</b></h2><p>Tyrese Maxey looked like a star for the first time all season in the second half against Indiana, draining shots and stepping up on defense to lead his team to a gutsy win. The Pistons gave him another springboard to get going and he took advantage.</p><p>The Pistons put Jaden Ivey on Maxey, and then later Malik Beasley when he subbed out, but the Sixers targeted inferior defenders like Tim Hardaway Jr. and Cade Cunningham instead. The Pistons brought their bigs up to the level of screens but Maxey stayed patient and found ways to get downhill, including on nice long-armed layups. He used his 6-foot-8 wingspan to extend outside of the block radius of defenders on his way to 10 points and two assists on 4-7 shooting in the opening period.</p><p>Maxey got the better of his former teammate on a step-back, mid-range jumper. Then he put one in over Ivey on the other end. Although he had his way with Detroit’s defense, the Pistons could afford to pack the paint because of the 76ers’ woeful three-point shooting. Only four of their first 15 attempts found the bottom of the net, though Maxey’s 1-5 shooting line was a primary contributor. Also not helping: only seven makes from the foul line in Philly’s first 12 attempts.</p><p>The Pistons’ shooting from the field wasn’t anything special but its toughness on the boards and proficiency in transition, at the foul line and the arc put them ahead by nine at the half. Maxey had 19 points on 8-15 shooting and no one else on his side had even eight points. Philly made as many field goals as Maxey in the first half and attempted 10 more shots.</p><p>This was Maxey’s most well-balanced performance of the early season and it went to complete waste.</p><h2><b>76ers are becoming too wasteful of shot-clock seconds</b></h2><p>The 76ers have mastered the art of wasting time on offense. When compounded with the lack of high-end creation talent that plagues them without Embiid or George, teams as bad as the Pistons can put them in a headlock.</p><p>The Sixers do push the pace at times, resulting in easy buckets. But in the halfcourt, so much time is spent getting the ball to Maxey, getting it <i>back</i> to Maxey or waiting for someone away from the ball to create space that could go towards…anything else. The shots that resulted from this wretched offensive performance did not feature enough rim attempts or threes. And the Pistons, living up to their car-centric name, got out in the open road a bunch to open up the third quarter, leading to a 21-point advantage at one point.</p><p>Philly’s struggles on offense without its stars have been well-documented but it will be hard to have takeaways on anything else if things look this bleak. Maxey was efficient, even with his poor shooting from downtown, but the Sixers looked incapable of taking advantage of the fact that they had the best player on the court. Stewart’s impeccable defense at the rim only tells part of the story.</p><p>One lineup that generated positive results on offense was Maxey-Jared McCain-Eric Gordon-KJ Martin-Guerschon Yabusele. It was light, spacious and featured multiple shot-makers. It also featured a variation with Lowry in Martin’s place. McCain and Martin each found their way to the cup while Maxey and Martin connected on a fast-break lob. Defense and rebounding were still issues but the offense looked better…so, progress?</p><p>McCain, the rookie, looks not only like one of the most decisive Sixers but one of the most adept at creating something off the bounce. He got to the rim a few times, using his strength and craftiness to penetrate the defense. He played strong defense, as well, and was even trusted to guard Cunningham and Ivey at various points in the fourth quarter. It would be wise to work in some more minutes for him.</p><h2><b>Other takeaways</b></h2><ul><li>Stewart tried to post up against Lowry early in the shot clock several times. He got himself an and-one but also got the ball knocked away by the physical, quick-witted veteran on a few occasions.</li><li>Cunningham and Ivey are not always going to shoot a combined 7-15 from beyond the arc. But to chalk this game up to bad shooting luck both ways undeservedly takes Philly off the hook for a pitiful process on offense.</li><li>Few players have line-drive shot releases like Caleb Martin does. It’s also a slow shot that he gradually works up to, which may limit his ability to be a reliable floor spacer in the playoffs.</li></ul><p>The 76ers will play the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night before embarking on a three-game West Coast trip. Thankfully, it sounds like there’s a chance, however small, that Embiid and/or George <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1851736084633248100" rel="noopener">may be available to play</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He graduated from Marist College in May of 2022 and has written for TheKnicksWall.com and CenterFieldMarist.com in the past.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Detroit Pistons</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>PHILADELPHIA — After spending over five years with the Philadelphia 76ers, Tobias Harris is <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-4th-quarter-dud-lowlights-meltdown-heat">back in town</a> as a member of the Detroit Pistons. His experience with the Sixers came up short of the championship goal. Failing to even crack the conference finals, Harris said, was the biggest disappointment of his time suiting up for title-hopeful teams in Philly.</p><p>Nonetheless, Harris explained that he wouldn’t change how it all went down.</p><p>“For me, it was a great experience,” the veteran forward said ahead of the 76ers’ matchup with the Pistons. “I truthfully say that because it helped me grow in so many different elements of my life. All the years here — the ups and downs, the experience of playoff basketball, winning seasons — [were] overall extremely important to me…The experience and lessons along the way are ones that I would never change for anything — and it was not easy, as well.”</p><p>Harris’ tenure with the Sixers was <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1851327153410879862" rel="noopener">best summarized</a> by Nick Nurse, who called it “rocky.” The 76ers head coach said after his team’s practice on Tuesday that “the weight of what was ever going on about his contract and his play and did it match up and all that kind of stuff wasn’t much fun to be a part of.”</p><p>The Sixers backed themselves into a corner by trading for Harris in a contract year all the way back in 2019. After watching Jimmy Butler go to the Miami Heat, the Sixers offered Harris the most lucrative contract in franchise history at that time: $180 million over five years. It was roughly $10 million shy of a maximum contract but effectively became known as such throughout Harris’ Sixers tenure.</p><p>Harris’ shortcomings as a player — namely a tendency to slow the offensive pace down and a reluctance to shoot a high volume of threes — limited the Sixers, especially because he remained a starter his entire Philly stint. Even last season, he wasn’t benched <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-nick-nurse-blunt-take-possibly-benching-tobias-harris">despite some brutal struggles</a>. It earned him no sympathy from fans, some of whom have celebrated Harris’ departure to Detroit more than Paul George’s arrival to the 76ers.</p><p>What Harris did provide the 76ers, though, was efficient scoring and a defensive option for the best opposing forward. He was injury-averse and always willing to help younger teammates find their footing. Guys like Tyrese Maxey, Ricky Council IV and Matisse Thybulle benefited from having an experienced, level-headed veteran in their corner.</p><p>“I mean, those are the ones that I’ll never forget,” Harris said. “Just to see their growth and development, to see Tyrese having the success that he’s had and all the guys that I’ve been able to just be able to give some type of influence to or some type of experience and knowledge to has been important to me. Seeing their success, that’s what a vet is for. I never took that job lightly, of being an influence for the next upcoming players in this league. I’m always happy to see that type of success.”</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris returns to Philadelphia after leaving 76ers for Pistons</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Tobias-Harris-dribbles-the-ball.jpg"><figcaption>© Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>As much as 76ers fans are <a href="https://x.com/OnPattison/status/1851627575962972623/quotes" rel="noopener">happy Harris left</a> and harbor memories of mostly inconsistent play throughout his time with the team, those who spent time with him in the organization have always spoken about him glowingly.</p><p>Nurse, after describing Harris’ time with the Sixers, said that he’s a “good guy who was a great pro and tried really hard and worked really hard and produced a lot. I really like him. I like him as a person. I like him as a player.”</p><p>Kelly Oubre Jr., who was only teammates with Harris last season, remembers him being “very business-casual — how he dressed, how he operates himself. Very professional. Very suave. Tobias is a great dude, man, but on that court, it’s gonna be a different story. We gotta go out here and win for the 76ers.”</p><p>Maxey said previously that he and Harris still talk and that the veteran has helped the young star establish himself not just as an NBA player but as a leader, someone who can <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-how-tobias-harris-inspired-tyrese-maxey-give-back-to-younger-teammates">look after the younger guys</a> just as Harris did for him. Council said that Harris was a great veteran for him during his rookie season.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Ricky Council IV shouts out Tobias Harris as a veteran who really helped him out. Said Harris is “a really good person” that gets too much hate.</p><p>“He was real big for me.”</p><p>— Sam DiGiovanni (@BySamDiGiovanni) <a href="https://twitter.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1786459286886871335?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 3, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>For Harris, his fondest memories in Philly involve the people he got to spend his days alongside and the community events he supported.</p><p>“I’m looking forward to seeing a lot of great people,” Harris said. “There’s been great people here [who] have been amazing to myself, my family, all the way down the line to people up in the suites and booths that have treated my mom, wife, dad, family with the utmost respect. It’s been a lot of people that have always treated me extremely well every time I step foot in the building and that I’m extremely grateful for.”</p><p>Tobias Harris said that his energy for tonight’s game is about helping the Pistons get their first win of the season. The Sixers can’t yet show that their decision to pursue George over re-signing him has paid off since the new star is <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-joel-embiid-paul-george-remain-out-vs-pistons">dealing with a knee injury</a>. In due time, Philly hopes to achieve what it never could with Harris and pick up its second win of the 2024-25 season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He has been active in Detroit sports journalism since 2011 previously working with Bleacher Report, 1130 WDFN, and Detroit Sports Nation.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NBA</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>The Detroit Pistons have been <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-jaden-ivey-speaks-free-aggressive-preseason">putting together an impressive preseason</a> showing including their 109-91 win against the Phoenix Suns. Friday night’s matchup featured the preseason debut of forward Tobias Harris. The presence of the 14-year veteran left quite an impression after helping improve the Pistons to 2-1 in exhibition action.</p><p>Harris scored 22 points on 8-of-13 shooting in 26 minutes for Detroit. Twenty of those points came in the first half, which carried early momentum for the Pistons. He was also impactful defensively, leading to transition scoring opportunities.</p><p>One of the biggest off-season plans for Detroit’s front off-season was acquiring experienced talent to help complement their young core. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-tobias-harris-reuniting-52-million-contract">Signing Harris to a two-year agreement</a> this summer was one of those priorities.</p><p>After missing the first two preseason games due to COVID, Detroit’s veteran forward played like a seamless fit. Harris showed off his multidimensional scoring prowess with off-ball catch-and-shoot looks, creating his midrange pull-ups, and even scoring in fast break situations.</p><p>The Pistons have been in search of a versatile scoring forward who fits Harris’ role over the past few years. During practice this past Wednesday, he spoke on the <a href="https://www.freep.com/story/sports/nba/pistons/2024/10/12/detroit-pistons-have-an-offense-in-tobias-harris-preseason-debut/75639032007/" rel="noopener">benefits of his play style</a> and how it can help the team.</p><p>“For a guy like myself, being able to catch and shoot, being able to find passing lanes for different guys for open looks and being aggressive and using my size and speed to punish the little guys, or blow by slower forwards, that’s been the name of the game my whole career,” Harris said Wednesday, per Omari Sankofa of the Detroit Free Press. “Obviously for us, it’s just figuring out different guys, personnel-wise on the floor, how they complement each other, and how we can make the game easy for each other.”</p><h2>Cade Cunningham finishes with near triple-double</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/tobias-harris-1.jpg"><figcaption>Joe Camporeale-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The most dominant performance on the floor came from Pistons point guard Cade Cunningham. After struggling to find an offensive rhythm in the first two preseason games, Cunningham bounced back by almost recording a triple-double on the road against Phoenix.</p><p>Cunningham finished the night leading all players with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and nine assists in 30 minutes of play. There were no signs of inefficiency as he knocked down 10-16 field goals for Detroit. Cunningham is also displaying an improvement in his ball-handling by only surrendering two turnovers to the Suns.</p><p>The newly acquired veterans are already generating a promising glimpse of the Pistons’ offensive production. The shooters are opening up better scoring lanes for Cunningham and have created space allowing him to play in the post more often.</p><p>Detroit’s spacing is also doing wonders for starting backcourt partner Jaden Ivey. The 6-4 shooting guard finished with 16 points for the Pistons and utilized his breakaway speed at will against the Suns.</p><p>Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff has kept his word by staggering the starting guards with the backup unit. This creates more time for each player to work on-ball reps as the primary decision-maker. They also have taken advantage of opportunities to establish their chemistry on the floor together. Bickerstaff spoke on the <a href="https://x.com/IAmEricVincent/status/1843117986254860686" rel="noopener">importance of chemistry</a> during Media Day before the preseason began.</p><p>“They really understand and will keep getting better at how to play off of one another. Also with how to set each other up,” Bickerstaff explained. “They’re different in their game but the same big guy has to make decisions on a play-by-play. Whether he’s dealing with Cade using his size and shiftiness, or J.I. using that speed.

His rise from young buck to franchise cornerstone has matched the unreal on-court speed that propelled him. Although he’s still one of the younger players on the team, he’s setting out to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-how-tyrese-maxey-worked-on-developing-lead-guard-2024-offseason">establish himself as a leader</a>, especially for young players.</p><p>Littered throughout the Sixers’ veteran-laden roster are some youngsters, namely rookie guard Jared McCain. Maxey leads by example with his exceptional work ethic but also <a href="https://x.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1757964859734466751" rel="noopener">wants to offer advice and assistance</a> to McCain, Ricky Council IV, Adem Bona and others as the season approaches.</p><p>A former teammate, Tobias Harris, helped push him to be that type of teammate. After the Sixers’ second day of training camp, Maxey said that he recently talked with Harris, now of the Detroit Pistons, and that his former teammate is pushing him to continue being a great leader.</p><p>“I’ve been talking to [McCain] since he got drafted. I’m just trying to give back as much as I can,” Maxey said. “I know I’m young still, but [I’m] trying to give back. I talked to Tobias Harris last night. He did a lot for me, man. He gave back to me every single day. Poured into me every single day since I got drafted. So, you know, he told me to keep that tradition going and I said I’m trying to do that.”</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris inspired Tyrese Maxey to be a leader for 76ers</b></h2><p>Although the Sixers gunning for Paul George showed their desire to upgrade over the starting forward spot Harris held for the last five seasons, those who played and worked with him <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-ricky-council-iv-reflects-on-wild-rookie-season-with-philly">rave about his professionalism and leadership</a>. While Harris moves on to the next part of his NBA journey, Maxey won’t let his good deeds go unrewarded.</p><p>The 76ers’ rising star guard is motivated to become an even better player and be a similarly supportive veteran for the new crop of youngsters. The results so far have been promising.</p><p>“He’s more assertive, I would say,” Kelly Oubre Jr. said of Maxey on Tuesday. “He was vocal last year. He’s just more assertive, man. I think he’s obviously confident. He’s coming to his own and he has made a name for himself in this league, which he was trying to do last year and he did that. He’s just more assertive, man, more confident and definitely a better leader than he was last year, for sure.”</p><p>Maxey added that he went out to eat Tuesday night with McCain and Bona, the 76ers’ latest draft picks. He’ll surely do a lot more for the young players to make their transition to the NBA as seamless as possible.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In addition to hiring recent New Orleans Pelicans general manager Trajan Langdon to be their new President of Basketball Operations, the Pistons also hired recent Cleveland Cavaliers coach JB Bickerstaff to take over for Monty Williams on the sidelines.

In total, Harris played in 157 total games with Detroit from 2016-2018.</p><p>Since joining the Sixers, Harris has continued to be a solid secondary scoring option on the wing, averaging 17.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game while shooting 36.9 percent from three-point range.</p><p>The Pistons feature a young core of Cunningham, Jalen Duren, Amen Thompson, and Jaden Ivey – along with rookie Ron Holland.</p><h2><b>76ers fans glad to see Tobias Harris leave for Pistons?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Tobias-Harris-2.jpg"><figcaption>© Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>With his five-year, $180 million contract with the 76ers expiring, it appeared as if the two sides were destined for a split in free agency.

Even when the negative voices threatened to drown you out, your love for this team and this city shone through.”</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris heads to Pistons after rocky 76ers tenure</b></h2><p>When Harris took to Instagram to share his excitement about rejoining the Pistons, some 76ers fans felt upset that he hadn’t thanked them or the team in a social media post. It would have been understandable for Harris to thank his teammates and the franchise privately after facing so much heat from the public. Much of the outrage from fans felt bizarre, anyway. Was it really that important to them that a player they despised acknowledged them?</p><p>In the end, Harris decided to acknowledge it and shared a message that still left plenty of 76ers fans wishing him well in Detroit.</p><p>The Pistons are rebuilding but could use <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-tobias-harris-reuniting-52-million-contract">a steadying presence</a> to help their young players. Harris should be able to provide that, offering himself as a scoring option and someone willing to take the toughest defensive assignments. He’ll likely be a starter alongside newly extended Cade Cunningham.</p><p>The 76ers replacing Harris with Paule George at one of the starting forward spots <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-why-joel-embiid-believes-big-3-with-paul-george-tyrese-maxey-will-keep-him-healthy">will make them markedly better</a>. One of the final lines in Harris’ post suggests that he wants the team to reach heights it never did with him aboard.</p><p>“To the city, the fans, and the team that will always hold a special place in my heart – THANK YOU!!, and may the future bring you everything you deserve and desire,” Harris wrote.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Harris was a starting forward for the Philadelphia 76ers for more than five seasons before signing a contract in 2024 to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-tobias-harris-reuniting-52-million-contract">return to the Detroit Pistons</a>.</p><p>Harris has been a reliable starter in the league. Let’s take a closer look at Tobias Harris’ net worth in 2024.</p><h2><b>What is Tobias Harris’ net worth in 2024?: $30 million (estimate)</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Pistons are signing Tobias Harris to a 2 year deal worth 52M per <a href="https://twitter.com/wojespn?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@wojespn</a> <a href="https://t.co/DQ1zy6vsat">pic.twitter.com/DQ1zy6vsat</a></p><p>— Joe Chapp (@DetroitJoeChapp) <a href="https://twitter.com/DetroitJoeChapp/status/1807783853106327788?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 1, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Tobias Harris’ net worth in 2024 <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/nba/tobias-harris-net-worth/" rel="noopener">is $30 million</a>. This is according to reputable outlets such as Celebrity Net Worth.</p><p>Tobias Harris was born on July 15, 1992, in Islip, N.Y.. He attended Half Hollow Hills High School West where Harris put up 24.7 points, 14.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 3.3 blocks per game  to lead Half Hollow Hills to the New York Class AA state boys basketball championship game.</p><p>For his junior year, Harris transferred to Long Island Lutheran Middle and High School. In a Crusaders uniform, Harris averaged 25 points and 12 rebounds per game and led them to a New York state Class A championship. He finished his high school stint as Mr. New York Basketball and as a McDonald’s All-American.</p><p>Coming out of high school, <a href="https://www.espn.com/college-sports/basketball/recruiting/player/_/id/44255/tobias-harris" rel="noopener">Harris was a five-star prospect</a>, according to ESPN. As a blue-chip prospect, Harris received offers from various college basketball programs. These colleges include Syracuse, Maryland, Louisville, Georgia Tech and Tennessee. Harris committed to Tennessee.</p><p>Harris was a one-and-done prospect for Tennessee. In his lone season in a Volunteers uniform, Harris averaged 15.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game while shooting 46 percent from the field overall. As a result, Harris was named to the SEC All-Freshman Team and Second team All-SEC.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris is drafted by the Bobcats, traded to the Bucks</b></h2><p>After just one season with Tennessee, Harris decided to forego his remaining years of college eligibility by officially declaring for the 2011 NBA Draft. On draft night, the Charlotte Bobcats selected Harris  in the first round with the 19th overall pick by the Charlotte Bobcats.</p><p>Shortly after the Bobcats drafted Harris, they traded him on the same night to the Milwaukee Bucks in a three-team trade involving the Milwaukee Bucks and the Sacramento Kings.</p><p>Not long after, Harris signed a four-year rookie deal <a href="https://www.spotrac.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/tobias-harris-8070/transactions/" rel="noopener">worth $6.8 million</a> with the Bucks, according to Spotrac. In his rookie season, Harris averaged 5.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 0.5 assists per game while shooting 47 percent from the field overall.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris is traded to the Magic</b></h2><p>Midway through Harris’ second season, the Bucks traded the University of Tennessee alum to the Orlando Magic with Doron Lamb and Beno Udrih in return for J.J. Redick, Gustavo Ayon and Ish Smith. Harris finished his sophomore year with averages of 11.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game on 46 percent shooting.</p><p>In the 2014-15 season, the Magic promoted Harris to the starting forward position. As a result, his numbers improved greatly to 17.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game while shooting 47 percent from the field overall.</p><p>Coming off a solid season, the Magic rewarded Harris with a four-year contract extension worth $64 million, based on <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2507630-tobias-harris-latest-news-rumors-and-speculation-on-free-agent-sf" rel="noopener">reports</a>. Harris stayed until midway through the 2015-16 season, averaging 13.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game on 46 percent shooting.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris is traded to the Pistons, then the Clippers</b></h2><p>In the middle of the 2015-16 season, the Magic traded Harris to the Detroit Pistons for Ersan Ilyasova and Brandon Jennings. Following the trade, the University of Tennessee standout played in 157 games across three seasons for the Pistons. In his time in Detroit, he tallied 16.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per outing on 47 percent shooting from the floor.</p><p>Just a month before the trade deadline of the 2017-18 season, Harris was part of a package that landed him in Los Angeles with the Clippers. All-Star big man and former Slam Dunk Contest champion Blake Griffin highlighted the deal.</p><p>Harris played in 87 games across two seasons for the Clippers. He averaged a career-best 20.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per game while shooting 49 percent from the field and a career-high 43 percent on 3-pointers.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris is traded to the Sixers</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Tobias-Harris-net-worth-in-2024-2.jpg"></figure><p>At the trade deadline of the 2018-19 season, the Clippers sent Harris to the Philadelphia 76ers as part of a multiplayer deal. For the rest of the season, he registered 18.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per outing on 47 percent shooting from the field overall.</p><p>Prior to the 2019-20 season, Harris agreed to sign a five-year max deal worth $180 million with the Sixers, as per <a href="https://www.phillyvoice.com/nba-rumors-sixers-news-76ers-tobias-harris-pistons-free-agency-contract/" rel="noopener">reports</a>. Since then, Harris has served as the Sixers’ starting forward. He averaged 17.6 points and 6.6 rebounds in 5+ seasons in Philly.</p><p>However, in July 2024, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-philly-makes-paul-george-splash-free-agency">Sixers signed All-Star forward Paul George</a>, making it official that Harris would not be returning to Philly. Harris quickly agreed to a two-year $52 million deal to return to Detroit. The Pistons finished 2023-24 with the worst record in the NBA, and new coach JB Bickerstaff will be relying on Harris to be a veteran leader for the young Pistons.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris’ endorsement deals</b></h2><p>Harris has been a reliable starter in the NBA. Given his popularity, it isn’t surprising that major brands have wanted to partner up with him. Some of the <a href="https://www.osdbsports.com/nba/players/tobias-harris/endorsements">brands</a> that he endorses include Nike, Beats by Dre, Gatorade, Monster, Goldfish, BlendTec, Asphalt Yacht Club, and Vashr.</p><p>Nevertheless, were you at all stunned by Tobias Harris’ net worth in 2024?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The deal is worth about $52 million through 2026. This is the first significant free agent signing by Trajan Langdon as the Pistons’ President of Basketball Operations.</p><p>Harris previously <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-fans-react-pistons-giving-tobias-harris-52-million">played with the Pistons</a> after he was acquired in a trade from the Orlando Magic in 2016. He was swapped in exchange for former Pistons Brandon Jennings and Ersan Ilyasova.</p><p>The 32-year-old forward averaged 17.2 points per game in his final season with the Philadelphia 76ers. Harris’ versatile scoring has remained efficient throughout his career shooting 47.8% from the field and 36.8% from three.</p><p>While Harris was not impressive in Philadelphia’s first-round playoff exit against the Knicks, his expectations will not be the same in Detroit. After finishing 14-68 last season, this is a helpful acquisition for the Pistons’ path of growth. Harris may not have the star power of most top-flight free agents but this is an <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/tobias-harris-eclipses-300m-in-career-earnings-after-reportedly-agreeing-to-two-year-deal-with-pistons/" rel="noopener">encouraging move for a team</a> like Detroit for numerous reasons.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris received affordable contract</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Tobias-Harris.jpg"><figcaption>Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>Detroit’s losing struggles were perceived as a crippling issue in attracting players to join the franchise. Langdon was on record stating that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-ron-holland-ii-makes-promise-change-losing-stigma">agents instructed NBA Draft prospects</a> not to work out with the Pistons. There are many reasons to believe the same dilemma would be reflected in the NBA Free Agency.</p><p>It’s also common to see struggling teams having to overpay to lure in free agents. Coming to a short-term agreement with Harris without damaging their cap space is a big victory for the Pistons. Detroit currently has about $26.5 million worth of cap space to sign other available players.</p><p>Harris had family still living in Michigan before signing this deal. He also had some of his career’s best seasons as the Pistons’ go-to scoring option. That significant history and faith in the franchise direction worked in the favor of both sides in getting this deal done.</p><h2><b>Pistons needed spacing and scoring help</b></h2><p>Langdon has consistently emphasized Detroit’s need to add shooting to the roster. This has been a plaguing issue throughout the Troy Weaver era as the front office rarely added sustainable pieces to provide better spacing and distance scoring.</p><p>The Pistons finished as one of the league’s worst in three-point shooting last season averaging 35% as a team. Injuries and a lack of depth limited Detroit’s ability to grow as shooters throughout the year.</p><p>Harris shot 35.3% from three last season but offers the ability to score in various ways. While the Pistons should not rely on him as a primary scorer, his scoring versatility can do wonders for this roster. Harris can score off the dribble and can take advantage of his 6’8 225-pound strength in the post.</p><h2><b>Harris provides improved veteran and forward presence</b></h2><p>Former general manager Troy Weaver neglected the ability to add youthful wing depth to this roster. Last season featured Bojan Bogdanovic and Simone Fontecchio who were both injured and missed a lot of playing time. Forward Ausar Thompson was also a big piece of the frontcourt but was limited offensively due to his inability to shoot.</p><p>The 13-year veteran now adds a veteran presence to the frontcourt with Fontecchio and newly traded for swingman Tim Hardaway Jr. Each can be a formidable catch-and-shoot threat when franchise point guard Cade Cunningham is doubled and dishing to an open shooter.</p><p>Fontecchio averaged 53% last season when shooting three-pointers from the corner. Harris shot 40% from corner triples with the Sixers and Hardaway Jr. averaged 39% from the corner with the Dallas Mavericks.

After months of rumors about whether they will or won’t land George, the Sixers outlasted all the other suitors and snagged their next superstar – who replaces Tobias Harris.</p><p>George’s decision to leave the Los Angeles Clippers was massive. After five seasons with his hometown team, the 34-year-old has decided to spend the remainder of his days as a star-level player with Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and the 76ers. George will likely be the best player to change teams in the 2024 offseason and is the best free agent that Philly has signed in the modern era.</p><p>Rumors had simmered about whether the 76ers genuinely wanted to add George. Speculation over their level of interest made it difficult to gauge whether George simply tried to use Philly as leverage to get the Clippers to offer a bigger contract. After weighing all his options, George decided to leave Los Angeles and pass on other suitors like the Orlando Magic to sign with Philadelphia.</p><p>The Sixers have been eager to fill the void left by James Harden with another star and have found their man in one of Harden’s now-former teammates. With George, they add a very accomplished veteran who plays a clear position of need.</p><p>In 74 games last season, George averaged 22.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.5 steals while shooting 47.1 percent from the field and 41.3 percent from deep and a career-best 90.7 percent from the free-throw line. Even as he reaches the twilight of his stardom, he has enough left in the tank to be a major upgrade on the wing for the 76ers.</p><p>With George set to join Maxey and Embiid in Philadelphia, the 76ers will undoubtedly be one of the favorites to make the 2025 NBA Finals.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In addition to hiring recent New Orleans Pelicans general manager Trajan Langdon to be their new President of Basketball Operations, the Pistons also hired recent Cleveland Cavaliers coach <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-detroit-j-b-bickerstaff-head-coach-cavs">JB Bickerstaff to take over</a> for Monty Williams on the sidelines. The addition of Harris is yet another change for the Pistons, one that they hope will help Cade Cunningham, who recently signed a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pistons-news-cade-cunningham-226-million-max-contract-extension">max rookie extension</a>, immensely.</p><p>After being with the Philadelphia 76ers since the middle of the 2018-19 season, Harris will now re-join the Pistons, who spent roughly two years with from the 2015-16 season to the middle of the 2017-18 season. In total, Harris played in 157 total games with Detroit from 2016-2018.</p><p>Since joining the Sixers, Harris has continued to be a locker room leader and a solid secondary scoring option on the wing, averaging 17.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game while shooting 36.9 percent from three-point range.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris joins Pistons after 76ers fallout</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tobias-Harris-during-NBA-playoffs-in-76ers-Knicks-game.jpg"><figcaption>Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>One of the Pistons’ main goals this offseason was to add experience and scoring depth to their roster, which is highlighted by youthful, growing talents. Not only did Detroit recently add Tim Hardaway Jr., but Harris now joins the organization to be a stabilizer on the wing. His leadership and experiences around the league will help guide the franchise in the right direction.</p><p>With his five-year, $180 million contract with the 76ers expiring, it appeared as if the two sides were destined for a split in free agency. There were some discussions about Harris being a potential sign-and-trade candidate, but the Pistons have locked him in on a deal that will pay an average annual value of $26 million over the next two seasons. There are no team or player options on this two-year contract with the Pistons.</p><p>One of the underlying factors regarding Harris and a potential sign-and-trade with the 76ers was Paul George’s free agency. Philadelphia had pursued the Los Angeles Clippers superstar hard, and they were able to land him on a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/76ers-news-philly-makes-paul-george-splash-free-agency">four-year, $212 million max contract</a>, giving him the largest free agent deal this offseason. With the 76ers allocating a massive amount of cap space and funds to bring George into the fold, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/tobias-harris-enters-undervalued-free-agency-rocky-76ers-stint">Harris’ situation became clearer</a>.</p><p>The 13-year veteran forward also drew interest from the Utah Jazz and San Antonio Spurs as an unrestricted free agent. Harris was also viewed as a potential sign-and-trade candidate for the Dallas Mavericks, who are heavily pursuing Golden State Warriors legend Klay Thompson.</p><p>Harris now gets a fresh start with a franchise he called home earlier in his career. After being a fan-favorite with the Pistons several years ago, Harris will look to help push this team down the path to success.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He then decided to sign a five-year, $180 million near-max contract in 2019 after going from the Clippers to the 76ers.</p><p>The Pistons and Jazz have the most to spend, at approximately $64.4 million and $38.4 million, respectively. This would be more than enough for either team to pursue Harris as an unrestricted free agent.</p><h2><b>Jazz and Pistons looking for NBA Draft talent in addition to Tobias Harris</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/NBA-Lottery.jpg"><figcaption>© David Banks-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>The Jazz <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/2024-nba-mock-draft-4-0-hawks-donovan-clingan-zaccharie-risacher">will have options</a> with the 10th pick. With Keyonte George as the future of their backcourt, plus Jordan Clarkson and Collin Sexton still on the roster, Utah may not have interest in creating a logjam with their guards. Ja’Kobe Walter is another player with a very wide range of teams showing interest in him. The best part about his fit with the Jazz is he’s more of an off-the-ball guard who has the mold of a modern day 3-and-D player.</p><p>There is a huge range of players the Jazz can consider at 10th overall, especially in terms of wing talent. Nikola Topic still being available makes for an interesting conversation, plus Ron Holland’s slip down NBA draft boardsdraws more questions about whether he could be the guy Utah needs. Whatever the case may be, the Jazz have not hidden their intentions to target a star this offseason. If the right All-Star becomes available between now and the draft, the Jazz will be open to dealing this selection.</p><p>Meanwhile, the Pistons are being viewed very much as a wild card due to their unpredictability. With Cade Cunningham, whom the organization views as an All-Star-quality talent, and Jaden Ivey in their backcourt, it wouldn’t be smart for the Pistons to waste the fifth pick on another guard. The idea of pursuing frontcourt help wouldn’t make a ton of sense either unless Detroit was to move on from Jalen Duren or Isaiah Stewart this summer.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Both have been linked to a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/knicks-news-why-paul-george-joining-knicks-would-make-sense">number of different teams</a> through free agency and sign-and-trade rumors. Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer <a href="https://www.inquirer.com/sixers/sixers-nba-draft-daryl-morey-free-agency-paul-george-20240623.html?utm_source=t.co&amp;utm_campaign=edit_social_share_twitter_traffic&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_term=&amp;int_promo=" rel="noopener">recently reported</a> that George and Harris could factor into one another’s futures.</p><p>The Sixers could reportedly add Harris and the No. 16 pick to a package for George, according to Pompey. Trading George and Harris would be sign-and-trades for both players. It is not clear <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-rumors-76ers-pivot-off-clippers-paul-george-pursuit-with-aggressive-alternative">how much interest</a> the 76ers have in George at the moment, but Philadelphia will do whatever it takes to win a championship.</p><h2><b>Paul George</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Paul-George-reacts-vs.-Mavericks-in-NBA-playoffs.jpg"><figcaption>Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>George is 34 years old. He has enjoyed a quality NBA career, but winning a championship is something that will catch his attention. At this point, George has to wonder if that goal can come to fruition with the Clippers.</p><p>He is still playing at a high level. He was selected to the NBA All-Star team in 2023-24 and averaged 22.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per outing across 74 games played. George also shot 47.1 percent rom the field and 41.3 percent from beyond the arc.</p><p>He is one of the best players in the game. Even if the 76ers end up not being interested, there will be plenty of teams with a desire to pursue George this offseason. Of course, a return to the Clippers remains a possibility.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tobias-Harris-during-NBA-playoffs-in-76ers-Knicks-game.jpg"><figcaption>Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>Harris is 31 years old and although he is not a superstar, there is no question that he is more than capable of positively impacting winning. He averaged 17.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game this past season. Harris also played in 70 games and shot 48.7 percent from the field and 35.3 percent from deep.</p><p>Philadelphia surely appreciated everything Harris offered the team. But the 76ers continue to fall short in the postseason. They will likely have interest in adding another star alongside Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. And the idea of a sign-and-trade with Harris to land a star will probably appeal to the team.</p><p>The question is if that star will be Paul George. George makes sense as target for Philadelphia. Again, though, there are no guarantees that Philadelphia is fully interested in the Clippers veteran.</p><h2><b>76ers, Clippers futures</b></h2><p>The 76ers and Clippers are in similar spots. Both teams feature rosters with potential, however, they have struggled to find postseason success.</p><p>In all reality, both Philadelphia and Los Angeles could make championship runs with their current rosters. Inconsistency and injuries have played big roles for the teams, though. As a result, making changes will be important. At the very least, each team will attempt to build further depth around their stars.</p><p>The Boston Celtics are fresh off a championship after committing to building around Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. It took Boston a while to build this specific championship team. Additionally, they needed to add multiple All-Star caliber players around their superstars to go along with impactful depth.</p><p>Developing a true contender is difficult. The Clippers and 76ers have the star-power to make it happen, but they need to make the right moves this offseason to take a step forward. The final landing destinations for Paul George and Tobias Harris will play big roles in both teams’ futures.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

That said, it’s a move the Black and Silver shouldn’t make.</p><p>Perhaps the numbers more important than his statistics are $180 million over five years. Or $39.2 million this past season. Though reports indicate that Harris and his agent are aware that the market for his services at that financial cost may prove tough, you can bank on the notion that they’re not heading into the summer looking to take less money.</p><p>The financial commitment it would <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-rumors-mavericks-interested-tobias-harris">probably take to get Harris</a> combined with how the Spurs aren’t built to withstand his game’s shortcomings make it a tough bet for San Antonio.</p><h2><b>Tobias Harris’ salary range</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Philadelphia-Pennsylvania-USA-Philadelphia-76ers-forward-Tobias-Harris-12.jpg"><figcaption>Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>When the financial allotments that would come with the fourth and eighth picks of the NBA Draft, which the Spurs have next week, are included San Antonio could have between $19.5 million and $21.5 million in salary cap space depending on decisions they make with their own free agents and players on non-guaranteed contracts. If San Antonio decides to approach this summer as a cap space team, which they very well might, they’d have access to the room exception of $8 million. Add it up and it’s salary cap space that falls short of $30 million dollars.</p><p>That’s a difference of more than $9 million compared to what Harris made last season.</p><p>Not including the raise Tobias will enter free agency hoping for, simple math says the Spurs would have to free up significantly more cap space just to come close to simply matching what Harris already takes home. Given that kind of commitment: tying all of their available cap money, and then some, on one player as part of a multi-year contract, would signing Harris be worth it?</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Tobias Harris' time with the Sixers is likely coming to an end. <a href="https://twitter.com/BrettSiegelNBA?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BrettSiegelNBA</a> breaks down why Harris is the most undervalued free agent available, with the Spurs, Thunder, Jazz, and Mavs emerging as attractive suitors 👇<a href="https://t.co/xNLwR1ojyL">https://t.co/xNLwR1ojyL</a> <a href="https://t.co/MhGdGoNGwS">pic.twitter.com/MhGdGoNGwS</a></p><p>— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1804287377864904994?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 21, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><h2><b>Harris’ fit with the San Antonio Spurs</b></h2><p>The biggest knock on Harris is that his production didn’t match his contract in Philadelphia. That doesn’t bode well for a Spurs organization that’s looking to spend every dollar wisely. His most specific criticism, though, centers on his play down the stretch. The sentiment of many around Philly is that the 13-year veteran would disappear during crucial moments of games. Again, not a good omen for a team whose priority it is to surround <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/spurs-news-victor-wembanyama-all-rookie-selection-continues-early-goat-narative">superstar Victor Wembanyama</a> with help.</p><p>As Wemby continues to develop, a key is not only pairing him with a point guard who can put consistently put him in good spots but also to flank him with guys who can take the pressure off. Harris has sometimes struggled in that area, specifically last year with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey taking the reigns as the 76ers top two players.</p><p>The 6-foot-8 power forward’s next team would be his sixth since entering the NBA with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2011. A report insinuates that could be the Spurs. Dollars and some sense indicate it shouldn’t be.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
