Gary Harris News, Rumors, Updates - Milwaukee Bucks

Plays minimal role in preseason win Harris compiled five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one assist in 10 minutes during Thursday's 117-111 preseason win over the Pistons.

Impact Following an offseason move from the Magic, Harris now finds himself playing for a team with a lot to prove. Although the Bucks lost some top-end talent, the depth is going to be an issue for Harris when it comes to playing time. With his best years well and truly behind him, look for Harris to serve as more of a veteran leader than a real-life contributor.

Impact Harris had a tough postseason, appearing in five games with 1.4 points on 37.5 percent shooting. His regular season didn't go much better, however. He appeared in just 48 games, hitting 38.3 percent of his shots with 3.0 points, 1.3 rebounds and 0.8 three-pointers in 14.8 minutes. The Magic hold a $7.5 million team option on the veteran for 2025-26.

Comes up empty in Game 4 loss Harris had zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound in 18 minutes during Sunday's 107-98 loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Impact Harris failed to score for the second straight game and the third time in the past four games. At this point, he is being utilized out of necessity only, given the Magic are without Jalen Suggs. Game 5 will see the two teams face off again Tuesday, with Orlando needing a victory to keep the series alive.

Impact Harris continues to play a modest role for the Magic, offering nothing in terms of tangible production. Constant injuries have resulted in Harris being nothing more than a veteran piece on a young team, with his days of being a meaningful contributor now seemingly behind him.

APRIL 21 • ROTOWIRE

Lands four triples in loss Harris closed Sunday's 117-105 loss to the Hawks with 12 points (4-4 FG, 4-4 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 18 minutes.

Impact Harris connected on four three-pointers, the most he has had since the season-opener. Injuries have once again limited Harris this season, keeping him to just 48 games, during which he averaged 3.0 points in 14.8 minutes. Even if the Magic advance to the postseason, it is unlikely Harris will play a sizeable role.

Back to bench Harris won't start Friday's game against the Hawks.

Impact With Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) sidelined, Harris drew a spot start Friday and posted 10 points in 17 minutes. While Harris will slide back to his usual bench role, he could see increased playing time again if Caldwell-Pope doesn't play the entire game.

APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE

Set to start Friday Harris is in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Pacers.

Impact Harris will replace Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) in the starting five Friday. Harris has averaged 7.0 points in 16.5 minutes across his previous two starting appearances this season.

Bright spot off bench Harris had six points (2-4 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 111-104 win over the Hornets.

Impact This was one of Harris' best performances in a while. He's mostly been a non-factor lately, however, averaging 1.5 points, 18 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 14.6 minutes over his last 10 games. If Cole Anthony (toe) continues to miss time, Harris showed Tuesday that he still has something to offer the Magic.
