Hart certainly made the most of a favorable situation last season, averaging over 40 minutes per game across the final 49 games of the season. While this should not come as a surprise given Tom Thibodeau is the head coach, it is not something that is sustainable heading into the 2024-25 season. A significant shoulder injury to Julius Randle and an elbow injury to OG Anunoby directly impacted Hart's playing time. Most coaches would simply dive deeper into their rotation, whereas Thibodeau went in the opposite direction, running his starters into the ground. Hart finished as the 124th-ranked player but was much better than that down the stretch, averaging a double-double with 5.5 assists and 1.1 steals over those final 49 games. The addition of Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns should ease some of the burden on Hart's shoulders from last year, reducing the do-it-all forward's fantasy value. If we look at what Hart was doing to open last year, we see an elite waiver wire option, typically added for rebounding purposes. That is where managers should view him on draft day.
