Josh Hart: Made calls to Lakers players, staff after derisive remarks

LOS ANGELES -- New Orleans Pelicans guard Josh Hart said he called some of his former Los Angeles Lakers teammates and front office staffers to clear up the negative comments he made about the organization on his podcast and on social media in September.

Hart said he never intended those comments to become public, but there was a communication error that resulted in the audio version of the podcast editing those comments out and the video version of the podcast running in full.

In the video version of the September 6, "LightHarted Podcast," with teammate Lonzo Ball, a producer is heard openly discussing cutting the portion of the conversation in which Hart derides the Lakers organization.
