The Nets are trading Joe Harris and two second-round picks to the Detroit Pistons, according to multiple reports Friday.
Harris is expected to earn $19.9 million in 2023-24.
SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley reported earlier Friday that Brooklyn was looking to trade the 31-year-old’s salary and lose as the Nets sought to retain Cam Johnsonwhich is supposed to warrant a major deal this offseason.
Harris spent seven seasons in Brooklyn from 2016-23 and played in 432 games (282 starts). The winger averaged 11.6 points in 26.9 minutes per game and was a strong peripheral threat on the court, shooting 44% from deep.
He led the league in three-point percentage in 2018-19 (47%) and 2020-21 (48%), but saw his minutes and production drop last season, averaging 7.6 points in 20.6 minutes per game – both career lows with the Nets.
Brooklyn is also sending Detroit a 2027 second-round pick via the Dallas Mavericks and a 2029 second-round pick via the Milwaukee Bucks, according to Friday’s report.
