Josh Hart Notches Third Straight Double-Double
7 years agoLos Angeles Lakers shooting guard Josh Hart went off again on Tuesday night, scoring an efficient 15 points on five of seven shooting to go along with 11 boards and three assists. Hart is now averaging 14.7 points, 12 rebounds and 2.3 assists on an 89.7 percent true shooting percentage in his last three starts, so it's safe to say he's thriving in his new role. It's hard to say what head coach Luke Walton might do when Lonzo Ball (knee) returns. However, Jordan Clarkson could've played his last game in a Lakers uniform Tuesday, so there may still be minutes available for Hart. Barkley has connected on eight three-pointers over his last three games, and his ability to rack up steals and rebounds without turning the ball over often makes him a nine-category gem. The four-year college player from Villanova is shaping up to be a legitimate NBA player, and he should be picked up in most leagues until he cools off.
