Joe Harris didn’t play a perfect game for the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night. But he was awfully good, enough so that for the first time as a visiting player, he walked out of Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland as a winner.
Harris began his career with the Cleveland Cavaliers as a second-round pick in 2014, his arrival in Cleveland coinciding with the return of franchise icon LeBron James after his four-year talent-taking tour in Miami.
A young player suddenly finding himself on a team with championship aspirations, Harris never got much of an opportunity with the Cavaliers.
