Josh Hart: 'I’m gonna play until my knees fall off'
Knicks swingman Josh Hart wanted to have some energy left when he leaves basketball behind. But now that the league’s new $76 billion media-rights deals are set to send salaries skyrocketing, he’s ready to collect every dollar. “I wanted to retire at like 34, maybe 35, so I’d still got a bit of juice left,” Hart told Front Office Sports Today. “But then I saw [the TV deal], and I was like, you know what? I’m gonna play until my knees fall off.” (Hart is 29 and has appeared in 453 games over seven NBA seasons.)

More on this storyline
Josh Hart couldn’t help himself after news broke that Cameron Payne was headed to the Knicks, poking fun at Payne’s arrest last month after he allegedly refused to give Scottsdale police his real name during an investigation. “Shoutout Terry,” Hart wrote on X after the news broke. The social media post was a reference to the name he allegedly told officers — Terry Johnson — after police showed up after he had called 911. -via New York Post / July 16, 2024
League sources say that the expectation now, furthermore, is that Mikal Bridges is likely to follow Brunson’s lead and sign a team-friendly deal of his own when it’s his turn to negotiate an extension (he’s eligible for a shorter and less attractive deal as soon as Oct. 1 or a four-year extension if he waits until after the season) that cements himself at MSG alongside his fellow former Villanova teammates Brunson, Josh Hart and Donte DiVincenzo. -via marcstein.substack.com / July 15, 2024
