6. Tobias Harris

Much like Randle, Tobias Harris would make a great second option for whichever star the Nets land. He would fit in well with the Nets current roster. Harris has found success with all of the five teams he has played for. Harris is a proven talent in the league, and a very good teammate and locker room presence to have.

Harris’ numbers are equally as impressive as Randle’s. At 20 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game, Harris is clearly someone who would help any team. One edge he has over Randle though is his ability to play both on the perimeter and in the paint. Harris is a very good 3-point shooter. Shooting a career 36 percent from deep would give the Nets flexibility when figuring out how to put their new team together.

Another thing Brooklyn will appreciate about Harris is his willingness and comfort in playing alongside star players. Last season alone he shared the court with Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons, and Jimmy Butler on a nightly basis. He will likely have no problem being second fiddle to any superstar the Nets land this offseason. Rumors have already linked these two together, so it could be possible that it’s just a matter of time we see Harris in Brooklyn. That is of course if the Philadelphia 76ers are willing to let him go.
