Hawks Player Recap: Devin Harris

Today will begin the Hawks' player recaps for the past season. They will last for the next fifteen days. First player to be reviewed will be Devin Harris.
Harris is a nine-year veteran out of Wisconsin. He has played for the Dallas Mavericks, the New Jersey Nets, the Utah Jazz and the Hawks. This past season, Harris had some of the lowest totals, in just about every category, in his career. He played in 58 games and missed 24 games due to various injuries.
He averaged 9.9 points a game, the lowest since his second year in the NBA. He averaged only 3.4 assists a game, again the lowest since his second season. He finished the year with totals of 577 points, 197 assists and 116 rebounds. One of his best games of the year came against his former team, the Jazz, on January 11th. In that game he hit seven of his eight shots, including four of five from downtown, and had 24 points while helping the Hawks win, 103-95.
Harris is a free agent and it isn't known yet whether he wants to return to Atlanta or not. If he does return, he would once again make a great combination with Jeff Teague at the guard position and help the Hawks run the floor. If he chooses to go somewhere else, he will either be starting or be a main component for another teams' bench.
