Tobias Harris, after the termination of the Philadelphia 76ers in the playoffs, is going to seek a new contract from elsewhere as he enters free agency this summer. The 76er’s farewell could be imminent for their head coach, as the end of their playoff run is the conclusion of the season for them.
Team’s Cap Space Strategy
Being the most expensive player in the whole NBA with a five-year, $180 million contract, Tobias Harris is one of the key figures in the 76ers line-up. Presently, though, with the team positioning itself to set an advantage regarding keeping space to sign fresh players, the exit of Harris has been expected.
Potential Targets and Cap Space
Besides that, the 76ers are to suggest a spectacular shakeup of free agency, with players such as Paul George, Jimmy Butler, or Brandon Ingram on the list of desirable targets. The team has about an estimated $60 million in cap space available to trade and five first-round picks. This position paves the way for the 76ers to make significant adjustments in their lineup this offseason.
Harris’s Contributions and Playoff Performance
Although Harris may not remain in Philadelphia, his contributions to the 76ers cannot be underestimated. With an average of 17.2 points and 6.5 rebounds per game, Harris has always been a reliable force for the team. On the other side, his role during the first-round matchup with the New York Knicks was insignificant, partly due to his poor form in some of the games, which contributed to the early exit of the team.
Free Agency Outlook
With the end of his current contract, Harris’s imminent free agency will introduce teams in search of a versatile player with areas of strength such as scoring ability and championship experience.
An altercation happened between James Harden and Paul George where Harden was quoted saying, “You’re Tobias Harris with a handle and better hairline when the light shine the brightest.”
