Hart isn't starting Monday's game against the Clippers, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hart drew a spot start Wednesday due to the absence of RJ Barrett, but he'll retreat to a reserve role with Barrett back in action Monday evening. Hart is averaging 4.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 23.3 minutes off the bench so far this season (four games).

Hart registered 11 points (5-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt), eight rebounds and three assists across 29 minutes in Wednesday's 95-89 loss to the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Hart got the spot with RJ Barrett (knee) ruled out for Wednesday's contest. It wasn't the most efficient of scoring efforts, but Hart did manage to shoot higher than the 34.8 percent mark by the Knicks as a whole. He was outscored by Donte DiVincenzo (16 points) and Immanuel Quickley (18 points), both of whom came off the bench.

Hart is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Hart will replace RJ Barrett (knee) in the starting lineup Wednesday. Hart made just one start for the Knicks last season across his 25 appearances.

Hart ended Saturday's 96-87 loss to the Pelicans with three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 21 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Hart struggled from the field Saturday but salvaged his fantasy production with a season-high 10 boards. The veteran is a key piece of New York's rotation and can help the Knicks win in multiple ways, but that doesn't always translate to a solid fantasy impact. Through three games, Hart has averaged 4.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 0.7 assists and 0.7 steals in 21.7 minutes per game.

Hart logged eight points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 131-106 preseason loss to Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Hart rested during Tuesday's exhibition game against the Celtics but returned to action for the second half of the back-to-back set. He should be available for the Knicks' regular-season opener against Boston on Oct. 25.

EDGE Analysis

Hart has been dealing with general soreness after missing the Knicks' preseason opener against the Celtics on Monday, but head coach Tom Thibodeau will give him a go.

Hart and the Knicks are set to finalize a four-year, $81 million contract extension Wednesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The deal isn't completed yet, and Wojnarowski relays that the two sides are still working through the final details. However, the framework of the extension will give Hart a significant raise while keeping him tied to New York through the 2027-28 campaign. In 25 appearances (one start) for the Knicks last season after coming over in a trade from Portland, Hart averaged 10.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals in 30.0 minutes per game.
