NEW YORK — There have been times over the past five years when the hate for Tobias Harris in Philly has been palpable. He’s overpaid. He misses big shots. He’s not That Guy.
Maybe Saturday’s effort will bring him some love.
In the absence of Joel Embiid and amid the struggles of James Harden and Tyrese Maxey, Harris scored 25 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in Game 4. He’s the biggest reason the Sixers swept the Nets and captured a 96-88 victory.
