#8: Josh Hart
Josh Hart is my guy. Through a weird set of circumstances that I’m not going to go into detail about here, Hart and his team once sent me a case of VERY nice wine, so he’ll always be one of my favorite players.
I also like his style of play and wish the Pistons had more players like him.
That was once suggested during a trade rumor season in which Hart was a guy Detroit was reportedly pursuing.
Hart got wind of this via a jersey swap on social media and wasn’t having it, saying “Na," which was enough to have the city turn on him.

You have to take everything Hart says with a grain of salt, as he likes to joke around (his recent rant about Indiana was hilarious) and it’s not like he really declined a trade, he was just playing on social media and pointing out that he wasn’t interested in leaving the New Orleans Pelicans.
I’ll give him a pass on this one.
