During the recent Knicks-Magic game, Josh Hart, guard for the New York Knicks, brought a special touch to the event as he attended Kids Day at Madison Square Garden with his 2-year-old twin sons, Haze and Hendrix. The game took place on December 7, and a heartwarming moment quickly garnered attention around the league.
As Hart sat on the bench with both of his sons perched on his lap, he was unexpectedly called back into the game. Upon realizing he had to dash back onto the court, he had to make a quick decision: he swiftly transferred Haze to his teammate Mitchell Robinson, who looked somewhat taken aback by the sudden responsibility. The amusing scene was captured and shared widely, sparking laughter and commentary. One fan quipped, “Count that as an assist,” highlighting the lightheartedness of the situation.
Commentators joined in on the fun, joking that on Kids Day, having little ones on the bench was all part of the experience. The moment resonated with fans, who appreciated the glimpse of Hart’s dual role as both a basketball player and a father.
Later in the evening, during post-game media sessions, Hart brought Haze along, who appeared captivated by Knicks guard Jalen Brunson. The charming dynamics continued to add to Hart’s growing reputation as a devoted dad in the public eye.
This wasn’t Hart’s first viral moment with his children. Back in September, he made headlines at the “Runway on Broadway” show during New York Fashion Week, where he walked the runway alongside Haze and Hendrix. The fashionable appearance highlighted Hart’s commitment to his role as a father, showcasing the twins, as the little ones paused midwalk, prompting their dad to jump in and help steer them along.
Following the game against the Magic, which the Knicks won 106-100, the team improved their record to 16-7 for the season. Fans are now looking forward to their next matchup against the Toronto Raptors on December 9, eager to see if more endearing moments will arise both on and off the court.
