Josh Hart to play through finger injury, delaying surgery
Original: Josh Hart says he is forgoing career-ending finger surgery, will play through pain https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7649
New York Knicks guard Josh Hart says he has decided against undergoing finger surgery that could end his career, and will instead keep playing while managing the pain. The injury affects his shooting hand, and delaying the operation means he will remain available for the Knicks as they push through the NBA season, though the finger is expected to keep bothering him.
Why now: Hart's choice to postpone potentially career-ending surgery rather than step away mid-season is a striking commitment to the Knicks' campaign.
