The No. 3 seed New York Knicks lead the defending NBA-champion Boston Celtics 2-0 in their second-round playoff series.
Despite trailing by 20+ points in the second half of each of their first two games at Boston's TD Garden, the Knicks stormed back to notch incredible comeback victories in Games 1 and 2.
Josh Hart has been a key contributor to the Knicks' success in this playoff series against the Celtics. In Game 2, the 30-year-old guard recorded 23 points, six rebounds, three assists and two blocks. He chipped in with a 14-point, 11-rebound double-double in New York's overtime victory in Game 1.
On Thursday, Hart was recognized with a notable NBA honor.
Hart was named a member of the Professional Basketball Writers Association's All-Interview Second Team, recognizing players who are "consistently thoughtful, insightful and engaging with the media."
Hart is featured on the second team alongside Mike Conley Jr., Tyrese Haliburton, Bam Adebayo and Damian Lillard.
The first team features Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Donovan Mitchell and Draymond Green. Curry and Durant were the top vote-getters for the honor.
Hart finished the 2024-25 NBA regular season averaging 13.6 points, 9.6 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game. He's averaging 18.5 points and 8.5 rebounds per game so far in the Knicks' second-round series against the Celtics.

"I don't even think we know what we're capable of," Hart said when asked about the Knicks' second consecutive comeback win. "We have to continue to build. I think we have to put together a full game, and I think that's something that we haven't done during the course of this playoffs... We've got to figure out a way to put together a complete game."
Hart and the Knicks will tipoff against the Celtics in Game 3 at Madison Square Garden on Saturday afternoon.
