Josh Hart says Knicks have to 'fight through' fatigue to overcome sluggish start to season

Following a ninety-eight to ninety-three defeat against Philadelphia on Friday, New York sits at two and four through six games this year. Josh Hart pointed to lingering exhaustion from their lengthy championship run as the source of their slow start, noting that their physical condition must catch up with their mental approach.

Karl-Anthony Towns agreed that the squad appeared sluggish early in the contest before finding a spark in the final period. Meanwhile, Jalen Brunson led the group with twenty-four points and brushed off the physical toll while poking fun at his teammate's age, though the shortened offseason continues to impact the roster.
