New York Knicks star Josh Hart has established himself as one of the best role players in the NBA today. The 6-foot-5 forward entered the NBA as the last pick of the first round in the 2017 draft.
Before turning pro, Hart played four years for the Villanova Wildcats. He helped lead the program to a national championship in 2016. Because of his contributions, Hart’s No. 3 jersey was retired by Villanova.
Most recently, the nine-year veteran helped the New York Knicks win their first NBA championship in 53 years. Hart was an important part of the Knicks’ title run, providing a steady defensive presence and reliable offense.

As the NBA offseason is underway, the recently crowned NBA champion also needs to relax. One of Hart’s outlets is watching HBO's hit series “House of the Dragon.”
House of the Dragon is a prequel to one of the most popular TV shows ever, “Game of Thrones.” Its third season premiered on Sunday.
Ahead of the highly anticipated first episode, Hart hilariously revealed the consequences for anyone who posts spoilers online.
"I’ll be on the plane when HOD premieres. If you tweet about it I will block you," he wrote.
"House of the Dragon" picked up on the popularity and fan base of "Game of Thrones." The reviews are positive for the show, and the latest episode even received an impressive score of 9.4.
The new season will have eight episodes. The fourth and final season of the show is slated to release in 2028.
As for Hart, the 31-year-old will definitely tune in once his flight lands. Despite his stern warning, the NBA champion should stay away from the internet for a while, as it’s hard to avoid spoilers online.
