While the Los Angeles Lakers search for the franchise’s next star, a few of the team’s young players are in the gym hoping one day it will be them, including Josh Hart.
The No. 30 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, Hart had a surprisingly productive rookie season with the Lakers. Though his numbers weren’t jaw-dropping, Hart brought consistent energy on both ends of the floor every night and made smart decisions with the basketball.
Now heading into his second year, Hart is using the summer to do everything he can to avoid a sophomore slump.
