One of the most common sights at the UCLA Health Training Facility last season was Josh Hart working with assistant coach Miles Simon after practice. Those hours of collaboration began to pay off toward the end of the regular season and has carried over into the Las Vegas Summer League, where Hart is averaging 23.3 points per game in just 27.3 minutes, with Simon as the summer league head coach for the Los Angeles Lakers.
Much of their work together has revolved around Hart’s ability to shoot off of the dribble, and he’s demonstrated a great deal of improvement in this respect.
