Hart accumulated 21 points (5-7 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebuonds and one steal across 21 minutes in the Lakers' 114-110 win over the Timberwolves on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
To say Hart was locked in Wednesday was an understatement, as he drained a season-best five three-point buckets and was perfect from the charity stripe for the second straight game. After temporarily usurping Kentavious Caldwell-Pope for the starting job at two-guard, Hart has joined the latter on the bench since Brandon Ingram's return from suspension. That led to a five-game downturn where Hart failed to top 11 points and shot 33.3 percent or less in four contests, but perhaps Wednesday's outing will serve as a launchpad for better production.

Hart managed just three points to go with two assists and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 114-113 victory over Dallas.
EDGE Analysis
Hart's hot start to the season seems like a distant memory at the moment as he continues to struggle with his shot. In fact, he was even outplayed by Kentavious Caldwell-Pope who had appeared to be out of the rotation in the last game. It is a worrying trend for Hart who does not have the proven track record to keep him on the floor. If he is on your roster, he is still a borderline hold at this stage but dropping him for a hot free-agent would by no means be the worst move.

Hart will move to the bench Monday against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Hart has been playing great to begin the season, but ultimately there's not a spot for him in the starting five with Brandon Ingram returning from his four-game suspension. Because of his good play, however, Hart could still potentially keep averaging more than 30 minutes per game like he's done all season.
