Hart's Struggles Mount

Josh Hart finished scoreless on 0-for-4 shooting and was removed for the fourth quarter during the Knicks' 106-104 NBA Cup loss to the Pacers. The wing is averaging 7.3 points per game, a career low, while dealing with a sore ankle and illness. He has not reached double figures in any of his last six games dating back to Oct. 25.

Mental Challenge Acknowledged

Hart indicated he is not in a good headspace and must find ways to regain his form and improve his mindset. He stressed the need to perform better mentally after the recent stretch of poor offensive output.

Teammates Show Mixed Results

Mikal Bridges reached 18 points on 8-for-12 shooting in the same contest. OG Anunoby continued to face difficulties, going 4-for-13 from the field while expressing uncertainty over his finishing issues near the rim.
