Tobias

Harris

After performing well in the 76ers’ Game 5 overtime victory, Harris was brutal in Game 6. He only attempted two shots, finishing with a team-worst minus-10 rating. Harris will be an unrestricted free agent this summer, and his nearly $46 million coming off the books gives Philadelphia room to strengthen the roster around Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey (who’s a restricted free agent). While Harris can offer top-60 fantasy value, he falls in a place where managers tend to reach for players with higher upsides. His ceiling next season will depend on where he lands; joining a non-contender where he can be a marquee option would boost his value.

Harris has struggled during this series, but this was his best performance through the first five games. He hit a pair of clutch free throws to give the 76ers a four-point lead in overtime, which contributed to his highest-scoring night of the series. He helped the 76ers stay alive, but they’ll need him to play like he did in this game moving forward if they want to pull off the comeback. Game 6 will be back in Philadelphia on Thursday.

Maxey and the 76ers are now on the brink of elimination, and his production decreased in Philadelphia’s two home games. After shooting 54% from the field in Games 1 and 2 (68 points), Maxey shot 17-of-42 and scored 48 at home. That isn’t terrible, but the decrease becomes magnified when the “supporting cast” continues to offer limited value. Kyle Lowry (7/5/7 with one 3-pointer) shot 1-of-6 from the field, and Tobias Harris (10 points, eight rebounds) was 4-of-10. Game 5 is on Tuesday in New York, with Philadelphia facing a 3-1 deficit.

Harris missed Philadelphia’s final three games of Week 23 before returning on Tuesday. While Joel Embiid was also in the lineup, the 76ers were without Tyrese Maxey, which protected Harris regarding his involvement in the offense. Only Embiid (22) and Kelly Oubre Jr. (16) had more shot attempts than Harris, and the 12 rebounds were the most in a game for him since March 22 (13 vs. Lakers). Philadelphia plays its final two games of the regular season on Friday and Sunday, the busiest days of Week 24 (15 games each day).

Harris is back after missing three games with a knee contusion. This likely results in Nicolas Batum moving to the bench, although Tyrese Maxey’s absence could change that. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Batum is not worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Harris has missed Philadelphia’s last three games, with Nicolas Batum filling the void in the starting lineup. Batum offers limited value in fantasy leagues, and that’s if he can provide a few 3-pointers.

The 76ers will be without two of their top four scorers as Harris joins Joel Embiid on the sideline. However, Maxey has been cleared to play and will take on a starring role in San Antonio. Nicolas Batum should enter the starting lineup as Harris’ replacement, but he offers limited value as a deep-league streamer.

Harris has missed the team’s last two games, which has allowed Nicolas Batum to start in his place. Batum has had success at times this season, but he hasn’t provided much over their last two games. If Harris is back, Batum certainly won’t be worth streaming.

Harris will miss a second straight game, which means Nic Batum (foot) will likely draw another start. Batum posted an 0/4/7/2/1 line across 32 minutes in his latest start. Batum is questionable, and if he can’t go, KJ Martin or Buddy Hield could slot into the starting five.

76ers coach Nick Nurse said ahead of Thursday’s win in Miami that Harris was dealing with a “bad bruise” in his knee and would miss “one or two games.” He’s questionable for Saturday, the first of two in as many days for the 76ers (Sunday at San Antonio). Should Harris not play against the Grizzlies, Nicolas Batum would remain in the starting lineup. Batum is a deep-league streaming option, at best, as a starter.
