Hours before the game was set to tip off, it was becoming clear that Josh Hart was on pace to miss the matchup. Eventually, the Knicks made the announcement official. He was ruled out for the night due to a knee-related concern.
The Knicks are searching for their 42nd win of the season against a 20-45 Jazz team. They’ll have to make slight changes in the absence of Hart.
