Harris will earn $52,017 through the contract, making his total earnings at $104,034 for 20 days with the Lakers.

Once his second deal is up, the Lakers will have to either let him go as a free agent or sign him for the remainder of the season.

The Lakers finish their seven-game trip Sunday, visiting Madison Square Garden to play the New York Knicks.
