Harris averaged 15.8 points, and shot 45.8% from three-point range in five Summer League games, enough to catch the attention of the Magic. He's agreed to a two-way contract with the team. 

The 6'6" guard/forward played for the Raptors 905 team in the G League last season, where he averaged 14.1 points and 5.6 rebounds, while shooting 40.7% from long range. 

Harris, now 25, went undrafted in the 2020 NBA Draft, and briefly signed a contract with the Los Angeles Lakers in December of that year, before being waived and becoming an unrestricted free agent once again. 

He got an invite to play on the Timberwolves' Summer League team this year, and used it to his full advantage. He now takes on the second and final of Orlando's two-way contracts for the 2022-23 season.
