Josh Hart moves up New York’s all-time list with his 17th triple-double



Josh Hart has been a fan favorite since joining New York Knicks 2023. Many believe his blue-collar style and hard-nosed approach are the perfect embodiment of the team.

The Knicks struggled to find a rhythm when Hart was sidelined for the first few weeks of the campaign. He was recovering from surgery on his ring finger after injuring it in the playoffs last season. But as soon as he returned, New York was back to work.

The Knicks were 9-1 in their last 10 games heading into Tuesday’s matchup against the Indiana Pacers at Madison Square Garden. Hart, as usual, was all over the floor.

With 4:30 left in the fourth quarter, he recorded his 17th triple-double as a member of the Knicks. He moved into third place on the team’s all-time list, passing Richie Guerin. Hart follows Walt Frazier, who clowned the Pacers, and Michael Ray Richardson with 23 and 18, respectively.

He should get congratulations, at the very least, from Jalen Brunson.

The 30-year-old Hart entered the NBA as a hit with Villanova, the national champion and Big East Player of the Year. Knowing, however, that he needed to play a different role to stay in the league, he adjusted his game, showing a willingness to do the dirty work and be the perfect teammate.

He played a bigger role with the Knickssometimes even as a barometer of their success.

As of this writing, the Knicks are trailing the Pacers in overtime. Hart has 15 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists.
