Hart will start Saturday's game against the Knicks, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hart was unavailable Wednesday against the Lakers after he was traded to the Trail Blazers on Tuesday, but he'll be part of the starting lineup during his team debut Saturday. He's averaged 14.7 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 35.9 minutes per game since the start of the calendar year and should have plenty of chances to make an impact in Portland.
