Player To Watch: Tobias Harris

It’s really tough to pick a Piston to watch. Detroit gets outscored with any one of Drummond, Jackson or Harris on the floor. They beat opponents by 0.1 point per 100 possessions in Morris’ minutes.

Still, Harris is the leading scorer, even if he’s not a starter on this team. That has to count for something, right? Harris had led the Pistons in scoring in each of their last two games, and he’s been a very reliable second unit scorer all season.

Plus there’s always a chance for a revenge game to be in play, although Milwaukee isn’t the only team to have given up on Harris. In the two games these teams have played already, Harris has dropped 16 and 25 points on the Bucks.

Harris’ three-point shooting still isn’t anything to write home about, but he’s nailing an impressive 55 percent of his attempts from within the arc. Much like DeMar DeRozan, who’s Raptors were beaten by the Pistons on Sunday night, Harris just gets buckets.
