Tobias Harris entered the NBA in 2011 with the Milwaukee Bucks. Since then, the small forward has made $103,291,880 through NBA contracts. That number is only going to rise moving forward, per Spotrac.
The Charlotte Bobcats drafted Harris with the 19th overall pick in the 2011 draft. However, the franchise traded the New York native to the Bucks on draft night.
Milwaukee then signed Harris to a two-year, $3.03 million rookie contract. The deal couldn't be signed until December, though, because of the lockout.
Tobias Harris made $1,141,446 during his rookie season with the Bucks. He averaged 5.0 points in 11.4 minutes per contest. The swingman earned $1,482,000 in his second year, splitting time with the Bucks and Orlando Magic. Milwaukee traded Harris to Orlando in February of 2013.
Tobias finished the 2013-13 season averaging 17.3 points in 27 games for the Magic.
In his first full season in Orlando, Harris put up 14.6 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists. He made $1,545,840. After the campaign ended, Harris was eligible to sign a rookie-scale extension with the Magic but the two sides couldn't agree to a deal.
Tobias Harris made $2,380,594 during the 2014-15 season and was set to become a restricted free agent in the summer. He averaged 17.1 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in his contract year. That production netted him a four-year, $64 million contract from the Magic in the offseason.
However, after signing him to that $64 million deal, the Magic wound up trading Harris to the Detroit Pistons in December of 2016. The scoring forward made $10,635,294 from Orlando and $5,364,706 from Detroit that year. He averaged 16.6 points for the Pistons in 27 games.
In 2016-17, Tobias Harris averaged 16.1 points per game and made $17,200,000. That was his first and only full season in Detroit, as the Pistons traded Harris to the Los Angeles Clippers at the trade deadline in 2018. Detroit acquired former No. 1 overall pick Blake Griffin in the trade.
Harris made $9,491,525 from the Pistons in 2017-18 and $6,508,475 from the Clippers. Tobias put up 19.3 points in 32 games with Los Angeles to close out the 2017-18 campaign. The Clippers really liked Harris and offered him an $80 million extension in the summer of 2018.
However, Tobias Harris turned that extension down because he wanted to enter free agency in the offseason of 2019. So, the Clippers traded Harris to the Philadelphia 76ers at the 2019 trade deadline so they could free cap space and acquire assets for Tobias.
In 27 games with the Sixers to close out the 2018-19 season, Harris averaged 18.2 points per game. He was set to hit unrestricted free agency after Philly lost to the Toronto Raptors in the second round of the 2019 playoffs. The 76ers needed to re-sign Harris since they gave up a lot to acquire him from the Clippers.
On July 10, 2019, Tobias Harris signed the richest deal in Sixers franchise history. He agreed to a five-year, $180 million contract with Philly. The 6-foot-8 forward was scheduled to make $32,742,000 in 2019-20 before games were suspended due to COVID-19.
Harris was averaging 19.4 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists for the Sixers in 2019-20. After his latest contract ends, Tobias will have made $250,549,880 in NBA money.
