Tobias Harris's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (thumb) will officially return from a one-game absence due to a sprained right thumb. He was already listed as probable heading into this matchup, so it doesn't come as a surprise that he'll be suiting up. With Jaden Ivey (knee) ruled out, Harris could take on a bit more of the scoring load than usual. The veteran has been a solid contributor in deeper category leagues as he averages 13.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.5 threes per game on shooting splits of .449/.342/.839.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (thumb) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Miami Heat due to a thumb sprain. This is only the second game he's missed so far this season, and it doesn't seem like this is a long-term injury. In his place, Ron Holland II could move into the starting five while Jalen Duren could see some added minutes as well if they want to go with a bigger lineup. Holland received 21 minutes in their last game against the Celtics and posted 26 points, three rebounds, and one turnover off of the bench. So he could make a solid streaming option for the time being.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (hip) has been upgraded from questionable to available ahead of tip-off against Indiana on Friday. The veteran returns to the lineup after missing the previous game with a hip issue. Through 19 appearances, Harris has been limited to 13.8 points on 44.4 percent shooting this season, grabbing 7.2 rebounds. Harris' return means a bench role for Ausar Thompson, with Simone Fontecchio and Ronald Holland II also losing playing time. Indiana struggles defensively, making this a good matchup for Harris, but he managed only 13 points in the first head-to-head meeting of the season.

Detroit Pistons forward Tobias Harris (hip) might have to sit out his first game of the season when the team visits Memphis on Wednesday. The veteran forward has been listed as questionable for the clash. Harris is among Detroit's leading rebounders, grabbing 7.2 boards per game, and has averaged 13.8 points in 33.2 minutes. With Cade Cunningham (hip) unlikely to return on Wednesday, there are going to be a lot of shots available for Jaden Ivey, Malik Beasley, and Tim Hardaway Jr. Simone Fontecchio, Ausar Thompson, and Ronald Holland II might receive more playing time due to Harris' absence. Thompson's versatility makes him the best fantasy option out of the three players.

According to NBA insider Chris Haynes, impending free agent forward Tobias Harris is expected to receive "ample interest" from teams this offseason. Haynes mentioned Utah, Detroit, San Antonio, Dallas, and New Orleans as the clubs with the strongest chance of landing the veteran, adding that he doesn't "see a scenario where Tobias is back in Philly." Harris, the No. 19 overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft, has played for the Bucks, Magic, Pistons, Clippers, and most recently, the 76ers. He finished the 2023-24 campaign by averaging 17.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.0 steals. Despite being in the league for well over a decade, the 31-year-old could remain a starter for whatever team he lands on. While he's past his prime, he still has a lot to offer fantasy managers, even more so due to his durability.
