Tobias Harris Scores Game-High 27 Points In Loss To Heat
Tobias Harris stepped his game up with Joel Embiid (head) sidelined for Game 1 against the Miami Heat on Monday. He shot 11-for-18 from the field and 4-for-5 from the free throw line on the way to a game-high 27 points. He also compiled six rebounds, one assist and one block. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough for the 76ers, who were defeated 106-92 in the game. Harris is averaging 19.1 points per game this postseason while shooting 53.7% from the field. With Embiid expected to miss Game 2 as well, we should see Harris have another high usage game on Wednesday.

Tobias Harris Out Against Kings
Tobias Harris (heel) will not suit up for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. He has been downgraded from questionable to out, resulting in his third consecutive absence. Dennis Schroder will remain in the starting unit on Monday, while Harris' absence also elevates the fantasy value of Ausar Thompson and Malik Beasley. Harris has played in only one of the last five games, so it remains to be seen whether he will recover well enough from his heel injury to be available for Thursday's matchup against the New York Knicks.

Tobias Harris Iffy For Monday's Game Versus Kings
Tobias Harris (heel) is in danger of missing his third consecutive game after picking up a questionable status for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran has been suffering from some soreness in his left heel. The Pistons have already clinched a playoff berth, so they're likely going to be a bit cautious with only four games remaining on their schedule. If Harris is forced to miss another game, Dennis Schroder and Ausar Thompson should both continue to see a bump in usage. Malik Beasley should also keep seeing big minutes off the bench. Thompson has the highest fantasy ceiling of the three as displayed by his last game, where he posted 18 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block.

Tobias Harris Out Again On Saturday Night
Tobias Harris (heel) won't play on Saturday against Memphis. He has a sore heel, so he'll miss his second-consecutive game on Saturday night. Ausar Thompson will continue to handle things at the four spot, with the 22-year-old amassing 15 points, seven boards, three steals, and two blocks in Friday's win over the Raptors. While Thompson remains a viable fantasy commodity, the return of Cade Cunningham (calf) could result in a dip in scoring opportunities.

Tobias Harris Questionable Against Memphis
Tobias Harris (heel) is questionable for Saturday's game against Memphis. The veteran has been bothered by heel soreness, most recently keeping him off the floor for Friday's win over the Toronto Raptors. Detroit is heading to the playoffs, so it's possible Harris gets a few more games off in order to be ready. Fortunately, Cade Cunningham (calf) is probable, which will help lessen the blow. But if Harris remains out, Ausar Thompson and Malik Beasley, combining for 36 points versus the Raptors, should continue to receive more work, with one of them expected to stay in the starting lineup.
