Harris is starting Thursday against the Bucks, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports.
Harris came off the bench in his last 11 appearances but will rejoin the starting lineup Thursday since Cameron Johnson (knee) and Royce O'Neale (knee) are unavailable. Over 32 starts this year, Harris has averaged 9.8 points and 2.9 rebounds in 26.7 minutes per game.

Nets' Joe Harris: Drills six treys again
Rotowire
Harris finished with 18 points (6-9 FG, 6-9 3Pt) and one assist in 16 minutes in Saturday's 101-98 loss to the 76ers.
For the second game in a row, Harris shot exactly 6-for-9 from three-point land to provide the Nets with an excellent scoring spark off the bench. Even though the Nets are overflowing with options at the wing after acquiring Mikal Bridges, Dorian Finney-Smith and Cameron Johnson at the trade deadline, Harris should have a regular spot in the rotation so long as Seth Curry (adductor) is out and he continues to light it up from distance.

Nets' Joe Harris: Lights out from distance
Rotowire
Harris closed with 18 points (6-9 FG, 6-9 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Thursday's 116-105 victory over the Bulls.
Harris had made 14 straight starts, but he shifted to a bench role Thursday with Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith making their Nets debuts. Harris missed his first shot of the game but connected on six consecutive three-pointers during the second quarter to give Brooklyn the lead heading into halftime. The veteran sharpshooter is certainly capable of solid scoring nights, but he offers minimal production in peripheral categories and may see his role decreased even more when Mikal Bridges and Cameron Johnson are added to the mix.

Rotowire
Harris registered 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists over 31 minutes during Saturday's 122-115 victory over New York.
Harris had one of his more productive outings in recent memory, popping for 16 points including four triples. Despite being inserted into the starting lineup almost a month ago, Harris has struggled to find any rhythm on the offensive end. He has scored double digits only four times during that time, keeping him well off the radar when it comes to 12-team leagues.

The 31-year-old was perfect from the floor and matched his second-highest total of the season with four made three-pointers against Phoenix.

Rotowire
Harris will start Thursday's game versus the Celtics, Jay King of The Athletic reports.
Harris will get the first crack at joining the starting unit, with Kevin Durant slated to miss the next month with an MCL sprain in his right knee. Harris has taken advantage of his previous starting looks this season, averaging 10.3 points, 3.1 boards, 2.1 assists and 1.0 steals while shooting 46.2 percent from deep and 47.9 percent from the field. He should handle a heavier workload moving forward and may be able to replicate similar stat lines.

Nets' Joe Harris: Minor role in return
Rotowire
Harris (knee) finished with eight points (3-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal in 16 minutes Monday in the Nets' 139-103 win over the Spurs.
Even though the Nets were without one of their rotational wings in Royce O'Neale (illness), Harris wasn't able to claim major minutes as he made his return to action after missing Brooklyn's previous four contests with a sore left knee. Assuming O'Neale's absence doesn't prove to be an extended one, Harris may struggle to capture a consistent 25-plus-minute role even after he's further removed from the knee injury.
