Tobias Harris

With NBA trade rumors surfacing that Damian Lillard could want out of Portland, the Philadelphia 76ers have quickly emerged as a potential suitor.

Some people believe that the Trail Blazers could target Ben Simmons if they were to discuss a trade with the 76ers. However, maybe they don’t want Simmons, making Tobias Harris the next likely candidate to be included in a possible trade.

At 28 years old, Harris is a versatile forward that can play either forward position on the floor. The veteran out of Tennessee has evolved into a formidable scorer, averaging 18+ points per game in each of the past four seasons.

While Harris isn’t nearly enough to get a trade done for Lillard alone, draft picks, Tyrese Maxey, and possibly another player could get the ball rolling.

Getting Harris would give the Trail Blazers an experienced player to help the younger players that would be joining the team moving forward.
