A fulcrum is that point between a lever where it pivots. It’s about as perfect of an analogy for Harris that you could ask for.
The Pistons were firmly in the playoff conversation at the trade deadline, playing .500 basketball for the first time in seven seasons.

Someone to help with their clunky offense that was last in the league in assist percentage and second to last in true shooting percentage. A secondary ball handler on the perimeter.
