All signs are pointing towards the Knicks making a change to their starting lineup this season, one that likely pushes Josh Hart to the bench. When it's all said and done, the move may actually increase Hart's impact, even catapulting him into Sixth Man of the Year discussions.
Speaking on The Game Theory Podcast, Sam Vecenie and Bryce Simon included Hart on their list of potential candidates to win the award, as both of them hypothesized that Mike Brown would ultimately decide to start Mitchell Robinson this season.
Hart started all 77 games he appeared in last season, in a year where he tallied the second-most total minutes in the league.
