The New York Knicks have been dealing with a multitude of injuries. That has led coach Tom Thibodeau to play some of his healthy players more minutes than they are accustomed to. One such player is Josh Hart.
The 29-year-old played all 48 minutes in Monday’s 119-112 win over the Golden State Warriors. He became the first player this season not to step off the field during game action.
Even though he didn’t shoot particularly well, Hart still made a notable impact in the victory. He recorded his fifth triple-double of the season with 10 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists. Before this season, he hadn’t had a triple-double in his career. The seven-year veteran now has five in his last 21 games.
