When it comes to Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris, the biggest thing that comes to everybody’s mind is that contract. The versatile do-it-all forward signed a 5-year $180 million deal in the 2019 offseason and he hasn’t really shown anything that he is worth that max contract.
However, that does not mean he isn’t a good player. When once puts Harris in the right role, he can flourish.
The biggest example of this was the 2021-22 season. Looking to build off a very strong showing in the previous season, Harris got off to a bit of a slow start to the season amid the Ben Simmons drama and not having a true point guard to set him up on the offensive end. He was also asked to handle the ball more and his life got easier with the arrival of James Harden midseason.
Let’s take a closer look at the year Harris had in the 2021-22 season.
