Tobias Harris sidelined by calf strain, questionable for opener

Averaged 13.3 points for East-winning Pistons

Wire Report IntelligenceUpdated 46m1 min read

What happened: San Antonio ruled out its lone free-agency addition after a left calf strain in training camp. Tobias Harris will sit out the preseason and be reevaluated after it.

Why it matters: Harris was added to supply size and scoring versatility at power forward for the Western Conference champions. Julian Champagnie, Harrison Barnes and Carter Bryant give San Antonio in-house

By the numbers: Harris averaged 13.3 points and 5.1 rebounds for Detroit last season. Detroit finished first in the East in the regular season; San Antonio won the West.

What to watch: Watch for the post-preseason reevaluation to determine his availability for the regular-season opener.
