Hart (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Washington, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hart was questionable for Thursday's matchup, and he'll be forced to miss his first game of the season. He's considered day-to-day for now, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to return Saturday against Toronto. OG Anunoby, Donte DiVincenzo and Quentin Grimes could see additional minutes Thursday.

Hart (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Hart has yet to miss a game this season despite dealing with a nagging knee injury. Hart was also listed as questionable to play Wednesday before logging 30 minutes and recording his seventh double-double of the campaign.

Hart tallied 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 14 rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes in Wednesday's 109-94 win over the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Hart was listed as questionable for Wednesday's game due to left knee pain, but that didn't stop him from leading the team in boards. Despite his 6-foot-4 frame, he has registered double-digit rebounds in seven games this season. Hart's role has diminished since the Knicks acquired OG Anunoby from the Raptors, but the former is still a solid bench contributor for a team that is battling for a top-four spot in the Eastern Conference.

Hart (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against Houston, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hart was initially listed as questionable with left knee pain, but he'll give it a go Wednesday. With Jalen Brunson (calf) also active, the Knicks will be at full health. Hart has scored in double figures just once in his last eight appearances, but he's averaging 7.4 rebounds during that stretch.

Hart (knee) is warming up with the intention of playing Wednesday against Houston, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hart is listed as questionable, but he appears to be trending more toward probable at the moment. Despite playing a consistent role, Hart has struggled to score on a nightly basis, averaging just 6.1 points on 37.9 percent shooting in 29.2 minutes across his last 11 appearances (one start).

Hart is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Rockets due to left patellar tendinopathy.

EDGE Analysis

Hart has yet to miss a game all season, but the Knicks could play it cautiously on the first leg of their back-to-back Wednesday. If Hart is ruled out, Quentin Grimes and Miles McBride could receive extended minutes.

Hart finished Monday's 98-94 loss to the Magic with four points (2-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

If there was a loser in the trade between the Knicks and Raptors that sent OG Anunoby to New York, it's been Hart. The 28-year-old forward has come off the bench in all eight games so far in January and done little, averaging 6.0 points, 7.4 boards, 2.8 assists and 0.8 threes in 27.3 minutes a contest while shooting a woeful 36.7 percent from the floor. Anunoby has a similar skill set to Hart but offers more length and defensive versatility, which doesn't leave a clear role for the latter in the rotation. Hart just signed a four-year, $81 million contract extension in August that doesn't kick in until 2024-25, but it wouldn't be a shock if he were moved when he becomes eligible to be traded in February.

Hart won't start Monday's game against Minnesota, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

After a blockbuster trade Saturday, the Knicks had only nine players available versus the Pacers, so Hart drew a spot start. However, O.G. Anunoby is ready to make his Knicks debut Monday, so he'll slide into the starting lineup, sending Hart to the bench. As a reserve this season, Hart has averaged 6.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.9 steals in 26.8 minutes per game.

Hart is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

The Knicks have nine available players for Saturday, as they made a big trade for O.G. Anunoby that sent Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett to Toronto. Hart's inclusion in the starting lineup is likely to be temporary until Anunoby arrives to New York, but he's going to have to play a ton of minutes Saturday.

Hart provided 10 points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 121-102 win over the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Hart's season-high 13 rebounds helped him record his first double-double of the season Wednesday despite coming off the bench. Hart continues to be one of New York's most valuable bench options, averaging 7.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 26.6 minutes across his last 10 appearances.
