Twenty-seven-year-old Philadelphia 76ers Tobias Harris is known for his game on the basketball court. Off the court, he’s become popular for regularly being pictured toting a new book while on his way to Sixers games.
Back in 2015, Harris told Sports Illustrated that reading before games increases his focus level. Being a baller is important to Harris and reading is too. I’ve put together a list of books that Harris has shared on his social media.
