NBA Offseason 2020: 5 potential landing spots for Joe Harris
By Mike Luciano
If we know anything about Mike Budenholzer’s offense, it’s the fact that he likes to shoot from deep as frequently as possible. The Bucks have done a solid job of surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton with shooters, but there is still room for improvement. Wesley Matthews is very inconsistent, George Hill is likely primed for a regression after a startling 2019-20 season, and Donte DiVincenzo appears to be more good than great. As long as Giannis is going to run things in Milwaukee, why not continue to surround him with shooters.
Harris might be a bit ambivalent about Milwaukee, as the Bucks aren’t necessarily starving for a shooter right now. However, if Harris is eyeing championships over money and points, the Bucks are the team for him.
Harris is not going to attract a ton of attention from opposing defenses, but his ability to rain threes could help Milwaukee’s space and pace offense continue to flourish. The only sight Bucks opponents would fear more than Giannis slamming a ferocious dunk on their heads would be the entire defense collapsing on Giannis before kicking it out to Harris for a wide-open three that is going in more often than not.
