Harris' five-year, $180 million contract makes it difficult for the Sixers to build a championship-caliber supporting cast around All-Star center Joel Embiid.
of The Athletic noted Tuesday,"Harris' transition frequency is down from 18 percent of his offense in 2020-21 to 13.3 percent this season, and it's fair to think that Simmons had something to do with that success."
This season, his efficiency has plummeted. He's shooting a career-worst 45.0 percent overall and only 28.7 percent from three-point range, his worst mark since the 2013-14 season. This season, Harris has relapsed into many of the same tendencies that plagued him in 2019-20. Although Curry and Green remain and second-year guard Tyrese Maxey is in the midst of, Simmons' ongoing absence has forced Harris and the rest of the Sixers into absorbing more shot-creation responsibilities.
At this point, the Sixers' best hope is figuring out how to coax the 2020-21 version of Harris back out. It might entail reducing his self-creation responsibilities and using him more as a catch-and-shoot threat. Then again, he's knocking down onlyof his catch-and-shoot three-point attempts this season, a marked decline from the 43.2 percent he shot on such looks last year.
