The 31-year-old forward departs Philadelphia, where he played for the past six seasons, and returns to Detroit, where he played from 2015-17.

Over his 13-year career, Harris has career averages of 16.3 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists. He joins a Pistons team that has finished the past two seasons with fewer than 20 wins.

Detroit is trying to rebuild itself as it looks to end a playoff drought that reached five seasons after a 14-68 run in 2023-24. The team reportedly plans to sign star guard Cade Cunningham to a five-year, $226 million extension soon and also brought in J.B. Bickerstaff as coach on a reported deal.

The Pistons went into free agency with $50 million in salary cap space, desperately looking for an influx of talent to play with Cunningham.

Pistons president of basketball operations Trajan Langdon has begun to reshape the roster by declining a $19 million option for Evan Fournier, extending a qualifying offer to Simone Fontecchio and acquiring Tim Hardaway Jr. from Dallas in a trade. He drafted Ron Holland of the G League Ignite with the fifth pick overall.
