The Nets wanted to improve their three-point shooting this off-season, offering $125 million in long-term contracts to restricted free agents Allen Crabbe and Tyler Johnson and ultimately signing a number of players who have had some prowess beyond the arc.
One of them, perhaps the least acclaimed, was Joe Harris, a 6’6” free agent who had surgery on his right foot in February and then was traded by Cleveland to Orlando before being unceremoniously waived by the Magic.
But the man with the everyday name has shown off not just an uncommon shooting touch but a comfort level when he steps on the court.
