Gary Harris looks to have a bounce-back year
I talked about Gary Harris a lot yesterday, but here’s the thing Nuggets fans need to know: there’s still a lot we haven’t seen from this guy.
Harris really couldn’t have had a much worse rookie season than he did last year, but neither could the Nuggets; it was bad, all around. He deserves a pass, and based off of what we’ve seen this offseason, he’s earning it, too.
The defensive ability he was praised for coming out of college is finally starting to come together, and, more importantly, his shot’s falling.
In six games this preseason, Harris shot 44.8 percent from the field, 40 percent from three and 90 percent from the line. If he can keep that up in the regular season, he’ll lock down that two-guard spot from day one.
