The Philadelphia 76ers made another power play in acquiring forward Tobias Harris from the Los Angeles Clippers Tuesday night. Harris was a borderline All-Star this season for the Clippers and has been a much underrated player for the past few seasons.
Harris averaging 20.9 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.7 assists while shooting 49.6% from the field and 43.4 from three this season. He allows the 76ers to have another legit scorer on the floor that can knock down threes. At only 26 years of age, Harris can still be a valuable piece moving forward depending on how this marriage works.

The Clippers were able to trade a guy they didn’t think they would be able to sign this summer as he will be an unrestricted free agent, landed multiple picks and Landry Shamet who has shown good flashes of a solid NBA player.
