Joe Harris will defend his crown.
After The Post reported over the weekend Harris had been invited back to the 3-Point Contest at All-Star Weekend but was unsure if he’d go, he has apparently made up his mind. And the Nets forward has opted to go to Chicago to defend his title, according to multiple reports.
Harris is shooting 40.5 percent from deep and averaging 13.7 points, on pace to match his career-high, after scoring 16 points in the Nets’ 119-97 win over Phoenix on Monday at Barclays Center. But he’s also clearly been playing through fatigue, one reason he had to seriously mull this decision.
