Tobias Harris Expected To Leave Pistons, Could Sign With Spurs

Tobias Harris has had two productive seasons with the Detroit Pistons to help support the franchise's resurgence around Cade Cunningham, but he will likely exit in free agency this offseason. The Pistons already signed his probable replacement in John Collins on a three-year, 51 million contract. They're going to lose Tobias Harris, said Brian Windhorst. Harris averaged 13.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 27.7 minutes across 63 games with the Pistons. The San Antonio Spurs are looking to sign a forward in free agency and Harris could be an option on a shorter contract. Tobias Harris has a chance to end up one San Antonio, added Windhorst.
