There’s no stopping Josh Hart’s obsession with one candy
NY Post
PHOENIX — At Villanova, where coach Jay Wright was a stickler for nutrition, Josh Hart’s parka doubled as a barrier against the Philly chill and a stowaway for chewy treats.
“I’d dump a box of Mike & Ike in my parka. Because if they ever saw me with it, they’d make me throw it out,” Hart said in an interview with The Post. “So I had to sneak it and hide it. Like I was like a little fat kid.”
Hart, a chiseled Knicks forward, is quite the opposite of fat.
He’s also now 28 years old, a father to twin boys and an NBA veteran who doesn’t have to hide his beloved Mike & Ike’s anymore.
Before every game, Hart is at his locker with a family size of the candy and a bag of popcorn.
It’s a pregame meal, devoid of nutritional value but bursting with fun, that Hart refuses to skip.
