Nets' Joe Harris: Makes strong final bid for roster spot Thursday

Harris supplied 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-3 3Pt), two rebounds and an assist over 18 minutes in Thursday's 116-111 preseason loss to the Knicks.

Analysis:

His scoring total led the bench and represented Harris' fourth double-digit scoring effort in five preseason tilts. The third-year pro has made a solid case for a roster spot, especially for a Nets squad devoid of offensive options overall. The Virginia product's three-point shooting has particularly been an eye-opener, with Harris tallying a 62.5 percent success rate (10-for-18) from beyond the arc. The 25-year-old is battling with incumbent Sean Kilpatrick for a backup role behind starting two-guard Randy Foye and primary backup Bojan Bogdanovic.
