Report: Spurs add veteran Tobias Harris on 2-year deal
Free agent forward Tobias Harris has agreed to a 2-year deal to join the San Antonio Spurs, according to ESPN's Shams Charania on Wednesday.
Why it matters: San Antonio is adding Harris on a reported two-year, $31 million contract, giving its young core another experienced scorer and reliable frontcourt presence.
The big picture: Harris, who spent the past two seasons with the Detroit Pistons, arrives in San Antonio after helping guide Detroit to one of the NBA's top regular-season records.
- The 33-year-old now joins a Spurs team led by Victor Wembanyama, Dylan Harper, and De'Aaron Fox that fell just three games short of an NBA championship.
By the numbers:
- Harris averaged 13.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and shot 36.8% from three-point range during the 2025-26 regular season.
- He elevated his play in the postseason, averaging 18.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.5 steals across Detroit's playoff run.
- The veteran has appeared in more than 1,000 NBA games over a 15-year career with Milwaukee, Orlando, the Clippers, Philadelphia and Detroit.
Why the Spurs made the move: Harris fills one of San Antonio's biggest offseason needs by adding size, floor spacing, and playoff experience to the frontcourt. His versatility allows him to play either forward spot while providing another dependable scoring option alongside Wembanyama.
What they're saying: ESPN's Shams Charania first reported that Harris agreed to the two-year, $31 million deal, marking San Antonio's first addition to the team of the summer.
Between the lines: The Spurs had already prioritized continuity by bringing back Julian Champagnie and Harrison Barnes.
What's next: San Antonio still has roster flexibility as free agency continues, but Harris immediately strengthens a rotation that now features another proven veteran capable of scoring, and defending multiple positions.
