Joe Harris getting his shots, getting respect

He isn’t a flashy ball-handler, vocal personality or a jump-out-the-gym highflier with elite athleticism. He’s 26, not 19 or 21 or 22. His expiring $1.5 million contract doesn’t isn’t very exciting either.

What he’s always had is a good head on his shoulders and a great jump shot.

Still, his impact on this team has been pretty damn profound in the early going of the 2017-18 season, a contract year for the fourth-year NBA veteran from Virginia.

In the Nets 109-102 loss to the Celtics, Harris netted a season-high 19 points, which also tied a career-best mark he set last season, his first in Brooklyn.
