Like in 6 seasons he has played only 200 games?
70 of it came in one of them. He basically has had one good season playig 21 min a game a few years ago. Thats it.
That he is 7'4 and weighs 220 lbs?
Often injured since college, and recall he played a hand full of games early against weak comp.
He was the 44th pick based on potential.
There is nothing (in my opinion) obvious that he is a good fit if you look beyond video complation of good plays and think he can sustain that. He is still young but look at his body/build/level of athletic ability. I give him credit for the fundamentals and foot work given that body. He blocks shots with that insane wingspan but there is more to defense that just that.
This kid on his way back to the NBA? Is it more than just hoop? Good question. As fans were should be asking such questions, not making assumptions when the facts are so varied.

No one is saying he’s going to come here and become prime Kevin Durant. We need shot blocking, rebounding and spacing off the bench. Josh Hart is completely ineffective right now and literally cannot shoot at all and it isn’t just a slump he is weeks away from giving up and getting surgery. Mitch and Huk are both in between injuries. Now I’ll wait for 97 paragraph rebuttal about how I can’t have an opinion about Josh Hart being putrid because I’m not his orthopedic surgeon with access to his X-Ray images
