With Anthony Tolliver (knee) ruled out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers, Harris could be the top candidate to enter the starting five, Rod Beard of the Detroit News reports.

Analysis:

Harris has seen a high-usage role off the bench in his first two games with the Pistons, averaging 18.5 points (on 51.7% shooting), 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 three-pointers, one assist, and one block over 32.5 minutes. In addition to Tolliver, the Pistons will likely be without new acquisition Donatas Motiejunas (back), leaving the team with few other alternatives to start at power forward. Regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench, Harris shouldn't have any problem clearing 30 minutes of court time for the injury-depleted Pistons.
