INDIANAPOLIS — Josh Hart does almost everything on the basketball court, except for asking to be taken off the basketball court. He has logged four complete games through the Knicks’ first 11 postseason matchups, and yet, with New York perhaps on the brink of its first Eastern Conference finals appearance since 2000, the alarming sight of Hart motioning toward the sideline, his left hand cupping his rib area, came just over five minutes into the first quarter Friday night.
“Obviously, something must have been wrong,” Knicks All-Star guard Jalen Brunson said.
