Herman B. Harris (born c. 1954 or 1955) is an American former professional basketball player. Harris played basketball at Chester High School in his hometown of Chester, Pennsylvania. He was lightly recruited despite being one of the leading prospects of his college recruiting class, which Harris attributed to scouts avoiding the city of Chester and its high crime rate. Harris impressed a scout from the University of Arizona in 1972 by being able to dunk while in a cast for his broken left foot, which led to a basketball scholarship offer from the university. He was named a Parade All-American during his high school senior year in 1973.
