Harris Active vs. Hawks
Wednesday, March 25
Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reported Harris is active for the Magic's game against Atlanta on Wednesday.
"Tobias Harris indicated his ankle is feeling much better. Seems like there's a strong chance he plays tonight," relayed Robbins
Harris has missed the team's last three games.
Robbins first reported Harris' ankle injury on March 18.
Orlando had its struggles from the gate this season, as Victor Oladipo and Channing Frye suffered knee injuries in the preseason. Despite many believing the Magic could turn a corner this season and perhaps even compete for a playoff spot, the team limped to a 15-37 record and fired head coach Jacque Vaughn in early February.
Harris, to his credit, had nothing but kind words for Vaughn:
Throughout the team's struggles, Harris has been a constant, averaging 16.9 points and 6.2 rebounds per game. Along with Nikola Vucevic, Evan Fournier, Elfrid Payton, Aaron Gordon and Oladipo, the 22-year-old Harris helps to form what should be a promising young core going forward.
In 2014-15, the Magic haven't been able to deliver on that young talent, but the future could still be bright for this young bunch, especially as Harris continues to develop and improve.
