Tuesday was not a very good day for the Philadelphia 76ers, especially for Tobias Harris, who has a large target on his back on social media after his putrid performance in a 106-79 road loss to the New York Knicks.
Tobias Harris Gets Roasted For Paltry Offensive Output In Philadelphia 76ers Loss To The Knicks
It is perhaps best for Harris not to check out his name on X or any social media platform at the moment. Sixers and NBA fans in general have been poking fun at him after he scored a grand total of two points against the Knicks.
The Sixers are already missing the services of big man Joel Embiid, intensifying the need for Harris to step up, particularly on offense.
But that was simply not the case in the Knicks game, as he shot just ⅙ from the field and bricked his only two attempts from behind the arc. He added three rebounds and two steals with an assist in the 26 minutes he spent jogging up and down the floor at Madison Square Garden.

Clear example of why Tobias Harris had a good fg %. This dude dribbles out the clock then passes the ball last second and forces someone to take a bad shot.

Tobias Harris in his last 19 games, going back to January 21st:
15.8 points per game
45.2% from the field
26.4% from three https://t.co/ct5FWLCrBC— Dan Olinger (@dan_olinger) March 13, 2024
There is no way but up for Harris, who has scored just 13 points in the last two 76ers games, both against the Knicks. Perhaps things will be better for the forward this coming Thursday when the Sixers travel to Cream City to face the Milwaukee Bucks.
