Josh Hart (illness) finished Wednesday’s loss to the Cavaliers with six points (3-of-8 FGs), four rebounds and three assists.

Hart returned to the Knicks lineup after a three-game absence, and he looked a bit rusty. His missed time and early foul trouble kept Hart to 26 minutes, and he recorded no defensive stats. Landry Shamet, who returned to the bench with Hart available, contributed 12 points, two rebounds, four assists and two three-pointers in 29 minutes. A good chunk of Shamet’s minutes came at the expense of Mikal Bridges (two points, one rebound and two assists in 17 minutes), whose struggles continue.
