Josh Hart was the hero of the day as the Knicks beat the Cavaliers 109–93 in Game 2 to take a 2–0 lead in the Eastern Conference finals on Thursday night. Cleveland dared Hart to beat them and he obliged by hitting five three-pointers on his way to scoring a playoff career-high 26 points in the Game 2 win.
After the game, Hart really shined as he walked the bowels of Madison Square Garden with a full-size personal pizza and then dropped a postgame quote that forced teammate Karl-Anthony Towns to remove his sunglasses and reconsider his college choice.
