Upgraded to probable
Hart (thumb) is probable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the 76ers.
Analyse
Hart was previously listed as questionable. He was forced from Game 2 with an unspecified hand injury at the time, but he was able to return to the contest. For now, the forward is trending in the right direction ahead of Game 3.

Questionable for Friday
Hart (thumb) is questionable for Friday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the 76ers.
Analyse
Hart was able to return to Wednesday's Game 2 win after suffering an unspecified hand injury but now is listed on the injury report with a left thumb sprain. Through eight postseason games, the Villanova product is averaging 9.3 points, 8.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.8 steals across 33.8 minutes per contest. If Hart is ultimately unable to suit up, Miles McBride and Landry Shamet would be candidates for increased roles.

Rips away three steals in win
Hart notched five points (2-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt), seven rebounds, six assists and three steals in 44 minutes during Wednesday's 108-102 win over the 76ers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Analyse
Hart briefly exited Wednesday's game with a hand issue, but he was cleared to return after getting checked on in the locker room and was able to close the match, so he should be fine for Game 3 on Friday. It wasn't his best offensive outing, but Hart did a nice job on the glass and as a playmaker, and he finished with a plus-five plus/minus in the win.

Returns to Wednesday's game
Hart (hand) returned to Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals versus Philadelphia, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
Analyse
Hart injured his hand late in the third quarter and briefly exited. However, it appears the 31-year-old will at least finish the contest, although he will likely undergo further testing heading into Game 3 on Friday night.

Heading to locker room
Hart exited Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the 76ers on Wednesday due to a hand injury, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Analyse
Hart injured his left hand late in the third quarter. If he doesn't return, he will finish the contest with two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals across 32 minutes. Hart was replaced by Landry Shamet, and he should be considered questionable until the team provides an official update.

Well-rounded effort in Game 1 win
Hart chipped in eight points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, three steals and one block over 26 minutes during Monday's 137-98 victory over the 76ers in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Analyse
Hart didn't have his most efficient shooting night, though he provided a well-rounded performance while playing just three quarters. The veteran wing finished second on the Knicks in rebounds and also tied the team-high mark in assists. Additionally, he led all players in steals after logging zero swipes in the previous two games. Hart and the Knicks will now look to take a 2-0 series lead in Game 2 on Wednesday.
