The New York Knicks finally have a second unit they can rely on thanks to the steady resurgence of fan favorite Josh Hart. Hart has selflessly made the move from the starting lineup to the bench, and in the process, has become the linchpin the reserves needed to build their success around.
With Hart finding his form and the Knicks embracing the new dynamic, Mike Brown can utilize the depth Tom Thibodeau wasn't necessarily afforded to build a long-awaited elite second unit.
Hart started all 77 games that he played for the Knicks in 2024-25, as well as 42 of his 81 appearances in 2023-24.
