REPORT: Celtics are a top suitor for Tobias Harris

Acquiring SF Tobias Harris may not be a blockbuster move, but it fills a need for the Celtics.
Magic F Tobias Harris has hit free agency, and according to reports the Celtics are a possible landing-spot.



It is worth noting the Harris is a restricted free agent, which means Orlando will have a chance to match any offer. However, it is widely expected that the Magic will not match on a max or near-max offer. After remaining hesitant to offer Harris the contract he seeks and drafting the 6'8 Mario Hezonja on draft night, it appears Harris will be on his way out of Orlando.

Reportedly seeking about $15 million or more, the Celts have the cap space for Harris, and he fits a need.

Despite nagging ankle injuries, Harris averaged 17.1 points and 6.3 rebounds in 34.8 minutes last season.
