Josh Hart may be a fan favorite in New York, but even he isn’t safe from being robbed in the Big Apple.
The New York Knicks star guard was robbed of $185,000 worth of watches and a bracelet in September, according to the New York Post.
The outlet reported that Hart, who lives in nearby Westchester, was in Manhattan for an event nearly three months ago and staying at the Dominick Hotel when he discovered his watch case was missing.
