Josh Hart Goes For 23 Points In First Start Of Season
5 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward Josh Hart entered the starting lineup in place of the injured Jrue Holiday for Saturday’s defeat against the Houston Rockets and shone across his 34 minutes of action. After a pair of impressive performances off the bench to open the season, Hart shot 8-for-17 from the floor overall vs. Houston, knocking down five of the 12 three-pointers that he attempted. His 23 points were his fourth most in a regular season game in his career, and the first time reaching that mark since April 11, 2018. Hart is likely to remain among the starting five for as long as Holiday is sidelined, making him a must-have asset in traditional fantasy, while retaining large value in DFS due to the pace of the New Orleans offense.
