Shaquille Harrison

Harrison played the role of defensive specialist off the bench during his first season in the Windy City, finishing with averages of 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.2 steals across 19.6 minutes over 73 games. The 25-year-old did see a notable drop in his shooting, however, as his mediocre 43.2 percent success rate from the floor represented a steep drop from the 47.6 percent figure he'd generated during his rookie campaign in Phoenix the year prior. Additionally, Harrison continued his early-career struggles from behind the arc by shooting well under 30.0 percent (27.0) for the second time in as many NBA campaigns. The Tulsa product, therefore, slots in exactly where he belongs, namely, as a secondary guard that will likely log minutes in the teens the majority of nights. Notably, Harrison did finish last season as a starter due to injuries in front of him and averaged a respectable 12.2 points (on 44.9 percent shooting), 5.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.8 steals across 30.9 minutes over the final 11 games of the campaign. However, the offseason signing of Tomas Satoransky and the presence of Kris Dunn help ensure Harrison will be no better than a third point guard off the bench who'll be once again projected to make some modest across-the-board contributions relative to playing time.
