Knicks' Josh Hart: Another solid effort in rout
Rotowire
Hart notched 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 31 minutes during Sunday's 118-85 victory over New Orleans.
It was another solid effort by Hart, who continues to stuff the stat sheet and has now recorded at least 12 points, three assists and one three-pointer in each of his last nine games. During this stretch, Hart is averaging 14.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.8 threes in 37.8 minutes per game while shooting 59.8 percent from the floor. The 29-year-old wing has thrived in a full-time starting role for the Knicks following the departure of Donte DiVincenzo this past offseason, and he should continue to rack up the counting stats in a loaded New York lineup as long as head coach Tom Thibodeau keeps Hart among the league leaders in minutes per night.

Knicks' Josh Hart: Comes close to triple-double
Rotowire
Hart posted 14 points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 40 minutes during Friday's 124-122 win over the Nets.
Hart made his presence felt on both ends of the court and finished just one rebound and one assist away from recording a triple-double. The veteran guard has surpassed the 15-point mark three times all season long, but his fantasy value is tied to what he can do in peripheral stats rather than just his scoring prowess. Note that he's among the best rebounders in the league when excluding centers, as he averages 9.2 boards per contest.
Hart provided 14 points (6-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 12 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 111-99 victory over the 76ers.
It's the first triple-double of the season for Hart and the seventh of his career -- all of which have come in the last two seasons with the Knicks. The 29-year-old forward appears headed for a career-best campaign, scoring in double digits in 10 straight games to begin the season and averaging 13.8 points, 9.3 boards, 5.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 threes a contest while shooting an eye-popping 58.9 percent from the floor. Hart may not have even found his ceiling yet, as his 29.4 percent shooting on three-point attempts is well below his career 34.3 percent mark.
