Jalen Brunson Jokes Josh Hart Is Old

Jalen Brunson joked that Josh Hart is “old as s--t” after Hart said the Knicks are feeling fatigue six games into defending their 2026 NBA title. New York opened NBA Cup play with a 98-93 loss to the 76ers, dropping to 2-4. Philadelphia has beaten the Knicks twice already. Hart said the team has to fight through the physical wear from playing until mid-June last season. He’s also dealing with a finger injury that can’t be repaired until he retires. The Knicks get a chance to reset Monday against the winless Nets.
