Magic's Gary Harris: Excels off bench with 18 points
Rotowire
Harris supplied 18 points (6-9 FG, 6-9 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 116-97 win over the Heat.
Harris kicked off his 11th season the league with a bang, drilling six threes from deep to help propel his squad over the Heat. His excellent result came as a surprise, as the arrival of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was expected to further limit Harris' impact. Caldwell-Pope logged 25 minutes to Harris' 22, so the two seem destined to platoon at the position.
Harris agreed to a two-year, $14 million contract with the Magic on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Harris has elected to return to Orlando after seeing his production dip yet again during the 2023-24 season. He averaged 6.9 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 54 regular-season appearances (27 starts), and he's played in 102 regular-season games over the past two years. Harris figures to serve primarly in a bench role in 2024-25, likely playing backup shooting guard minutes behind Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
