Tobias Harris' $38 million cost has more value to Pistons than any other NBA team

[00:00:00]Detroit's limited off-season salary flexibility makes Tobias Harris especially valuable, with retaining him a priority.

[00:00:08]ESPN's Bobby Marks projects Harris at $38 million over 2 years, a figure the Pistons would likely meet since they're over the cap due to the Jalen Duren hold.

[00:00:18]Harris is the top stretch forward in the class and has proven his value.

[00:00:23]He finished the playoffs strong, increasing regular season scoring from 13.2 to 18.1 p p g with eight 20-point games, including a 30-point game seven versus Orlando. Defensively, he allowed only 41.3% shooting as the closest defender in the regular season, ranking third among 187 players with at least 500 chances.

[00:00:47]While Marks notes the Pistons could pursue a guard such as Coby White or Ayo Dosunmu, keeping Harris makes sense given what Detroit already knows he provides.
