EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP)—Devin Harris(notes) is expected to play Saturday, a sorelyneeded boost for the winless New Jersey Nets.
A team spokesman says Harris will come off the bench Saturday when the Nets(0-12) host the New York Knicks.
The All-Star point guard has missed 10 straight games with an injured rightgroin. He was originally hurt in the preseason, then reinjured the groin on Oct.30 in the Nets’ second game of the season.
Harris’ injury has been one of many that has devastated New Jersey, whichoften has suited up only the league-minimum eight players while missing as manyas four starters.
