The Fayetteville, NC native is redshirting after playing his freshman and sophomore seasons with the Gamecocks. The 6’10 forward was named to the All-SEC Defensive Team his sophomore year after averaging 2.3 blocks per contest in 20 starts and playing in 31 games. He also dropped 6.8 points per game and grabbed 5.5 rebounds. Harris is sitting out the season due to NCAA transfer rules after leaving South Carolina when then-head coach Darrin Horn was let go.
