It was a tale of two halves for Josh Hart in his second season with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Through the first 30 games of the regular season, Hart was averaging 9 points per game on 44.1 percent shooting from the field, including 37.8 percent from 3-point range, while posting a team-high box plus-minus of +2.9. He was also ranked in the top-five on the team in defensive rating (102.1) and offensive rating (108.5) for an overall net rating of +6.4.
Then, midway through the season, Hart started to struggle with knee tendinitis.
