Report: Josh Hart expected to decline $13 million player option and re-sign with Knicks

New York is where Josh Hart’s heart is.

Hart isn’t going anywhere especially not after his dream start with the Knicks.

The 28-year-old guard is expected to decline his $13 million player option this summer and re-sign with the Knicks on a multi-year deal, according to Hoopshype’s Mike Scotto.

That should be the plan all along after the Knicks gave up a lottery-protected first-round pick along with former lottery pick Cam Reddish in the trade that landed them the Villanova product.

The Knicks have Hart’s Bird rights, meaning they could go over the salary cap to re-sign him this summer.
