I guess you gotta get that money, but yikes!
Tobias Harris, a free agent forward, has agreed to a two-year deal with the Detroit Pistons worth $52 million, according to a Monday report from ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Harris had been with the Philadelphia 76ers since the 2019 trade deadline when he came from the Los Angeles Clippers. Following the trade, Harris inked a five-year, $180 million contract extension to find himself a long-term home in Philly, which officially came to an end after the 2024 season to land him in unrestricted free agency.
For the Sixers in the 2023-24 campaign, Harris tallied a stat line of 17.2 points-per-game, 6.5 rebounds-per-game and 3.1 assists-per-game, shooting 48.7% from the field and 35.3% from behind the three-point line. He’s also competed in at least 70 contests in four of the past five seasons.
Since entering the league as the 2011 NBA Draft’s No. 19 pick, Harris has been traded four times in the midseason. (RELATED: 76ers Lock In Tyrese Maxey On $204M Deal To Add To What’s Already Been A Glorious Start To The Offseason: REPORT)

I’m sure Sixers fans are crying a river after setting up a sexy “Big 3” … *obvious sarcasm*
“A big three of George, Embiid and Maxey”

Get your money, Tobias, but you’re in for one hell of a rough time in Detroit.
