Today the 76ers lost to the Cavaliers 94-118 in the away game. Although this game is not the biggest difference, it is the only team that has not scored more than 100 points in several upset games such as the Nets and Bucks.
From the perspective of the strength of the two teams, even if the 76ers’ Joel Embiid did not play in this game, the strength of the two teams is still not at the same level. But it lost 24 points, the maximum difference between the two sides reached 32 points, the third quarter entered the garbage time.
In this game, the 76ers have a player who played worse, and that is Tobias Harris. Harris played 28 minutes in this game, shooting 5 of 10 from the field, scoring 16 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists. Although the stats are not bad, they don’t make much contribution to the team. The plus-minus value is only -16, making him the second-lowest player in the start.
In this season, Harris averaged only 14.3 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, with an annual salary of $34.35 million, making him the team’s highest paid player.

In the regular season last season, Harris averaged 19.6 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game, and shot 47.1% from the field. Although the regular season was a bit premium, at least the statistics were not too bad. In the playoffs, Harris fell again, averaging only 15.2 points, 9.2 rebounds and 3.9 assists, shooting only 38.5% from the field, 13.3% from the three-point field, and 46.1% from the true field.
The headache for 76ers fans is that, counting Harris’ contract this season, there are still four years of 150 million dollars, and the annual salary of the last three seasons is 36 million, 38.48 million, and 40.97 million. Looking at the NBA’s salary list this season, Harris ranked 15th. In addition to the reimbursement of KT, Harris is the biggest bad contract in active service.
