The NBA preseason kicked off on Thursday with the Knicks and Sixers facing off in Abu Dhabi as part of the league's international preseason contests. It took almost no time at all for the exhibition contest to become eventful.
Early in the second quarter New York do-it-all forward Josh Hart crashed to the floor after grabbing a defensive rebound and appeared to be injured. There was no obvious contact that would have caused anything but Hart hit the ground regardless and stayed down for a few minutes in some pain. Upon hitting the floor Hart chucked the basketball into the stands, presumably in frustration.
