New York Knicks finished the NBA 2022-23 regular season in fifth place in the Eastern Conference standings and lost 4-2 to Miami Heat in the Conference semifinals. Knicks guard Jalen Brunson led the team in scoring with 27.8 points per game in the playoffs but failed to beat Miami in the semifinals. Recently, Brunson unfollowed teammate Josh Hart after the latter's cryptic 'breast milk' post on social media.

While Jalen Brunson led scoring for the Knicks with 24.5 points per game, Josh Hart led the team in steals with 1.2 steals per game in the regular season and playoffs combined. In the playoffs, Brunson averaged 27.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 5.6 assists per game while Hart registered 10.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game.

On Tuesday night, Josh Hart took to his Twitter handle and asked fans whether they had drunk their wife's breast milk. Hart mentioned that it is a friend's query as the fans trolled the Knicks forward. Hart tweeted, "Have yall ever tasted yall significant others breast milk? Asking for a friend."

Hart's teammate Jalen Brunson was quick to respond to the tweet and asked the 28-year-old forward to delete his number. Brunson commented, "Nah bro no BS delete my number."

Later, the 26-year-old guard shared a screen recording where he unfollowed Hart and wrote, "Nice knowing you @joshhart make sure help on the way."

Apart from Brunson, Sacramento Kings star De'Aaron Fox also commented on the viral tweet by Josh Hart, who became father to twins earlier this month, and wrote, "I’m actually not surprised you asked the question less than a month in."

Ahead of Game 6 against Miami Heat in the NBA Conference Semifinals, Josh Hart became the first-time father on Friday, May 12 as his wife Shannon gave birth to twin boys. Hart reportedly arranged an elaborate contingency plan to  be with his wife for the birth remotely.
