ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith answered back at New York Knicks guard Josh Hart on Friday, March 27, 2026, adding another layer to a public exchange that has grown increasingly tense.
The latest remarks from Smith intensified a feud that has centered on the Knicks and the team’s recent performances. Hart had previously taken exception to Smith’s commentary, prompting the veteran broadcaster to issue a pointed response.
