Upon being bought out by the Utah Jazz earlier this summer, Clarkson signed with the Knicks when he hit free agency. Many have applauded the addition, with Josh Hart being among the most recent to do so. During a recent episode of his "Roommates Show" with Brunson, he touched on how the veteran guard will mesh with what they've built in New York.

During a recent episode of The Roommates Show with teammate Jalen Brunson, Hart recalled his first interaction with the Knicks’ new coach. “I was with the family and everybody, and we’re all at dinner, and I see a phone call,” he began.

If the New York Knicks hope to build upon the success they found in 2024-25, they will need Josh Hart to be healthy. Hart has become a crucial part of the team over the last several seasons, and they want him back and at 100 percent.
