Is Josh Hart playing tonight against Grizzlies? Latest on Knicks star's availability (Jan. 27)

Josh Hart's status for the New York Knicks' home game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday remains uncertain. The 6-foot-4 star is listed as "questionable" on the injury report due to right knee soreness. However, Hart is known for his resilience and there’s a strong possibility he will play through the discomfort against Ja Morant and the Grizzlies.

In the Knicks' previous game, Hart delivered an outstanding performance, leading the team to a dominant 143-120 victory over the in-form Sacramento Kings on Saturday.

The former Lakers star narrowly missed out on a historic 20-20-10 game but still stuffed the stat sheet with a remarkable all-around effort. Hart finished with 20 points, 18 rebounds, 11 assists, one steal and two blocks, shooting an efficient 8 of 14 from the field, including 1 of 2 from beyond the arc, in 40 minutes.

Hart has been a reliable presence for the Knicks this season, appearing in 45 of their 46 games. His consistent contributions have been a key factor in New York’s impressive 30-16 record.
