Harris was one of the top junior players in Germany. As a German junior, he spent four years honing his game on Speyer, a German third division team, averaging 20.9 points and 9.2 rebounds per game in his final season.[1] He also competed with the German national junior basketball team at the 2005 FIBA Europe Under-16 Championship; 2006 and 2007 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship; and 2008 and 2009 FIBA Europe Under-20 Championship.[1]
Harris committed to NCAA Division I squad Gonzaga University prior to the 2009–10 season.[2] He immediately saw action with the Bulldogs despite being a freshman; in his second game of the season, against powerhouse #2-ranked Michigan State University, he scored a team-high 17 points and grabbed a team-high 9 rebounds in a narrow 75–71 loss.[3]
Harris made his debut with the senior German national team at the Eurobasket 2009.[4] Although he was the second youngest player on the team, he averaged 12 minutes per game while seeing action in all six games for the German squad.[5]
