Nets guard Joe Harris to make season debut Friday vs. Raptors

NEW YORK -- Brooklyn Nets guard Joe Harris will make his season debut Friday night against the Toronto Raptors after missing the season opener and most of the preseason because of left foot soreness.

"I am going to play tonight," Harris said after Friday's shootaround. "I'm excited. I wanted to try and play the first game but just wasn't quite where I was supposed to be performing -- needed just a little bit more time, but I feel good right now and I'm excited to play tonight."

For Harris, this debut is extra special given he played only 14 games last season while dealing with lingering left ankle problems.
