DENVER \u2014 Pac\u00f4me Dadiet, the 2024 first-round pick who has spent much of this season in the G-League, finally took advantage of his NBA opportunity in Friday\u2019s 142-103 Knicks win over the Nuggets<\/a>.<\/p>\n The 20-year-old Frenchman went off for 11 points in just nine minutes of garbage time, helping send the Nuggets to their worst home loss since 1998 against Michael Jordan\u2019s Bulls.<\/p>\n It was a career high in points for Dadiet, who shot 3-for-3 from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n Pac\u00f4me Dadiet, who scored 11 points in garbage time, hits a 3-pointer during the fourth quarter of the Knicks\u2019 142-103 blowout win over the Nuggets in Denver on March 6, 2026.

And we want him to keep growing and developing. Anytime young guys like that see the ball go in and do those things on the floor in an NBA game, it helps with the belief. It helps not only in them believing and their confidence level going up, but also their teammates, too.\u201d<\/p>\n Dadiet hadn\u2019t played since Feb. 8 and never scored more than five points this season before Friday.<\/p>\n \u201cIt definitely feels good. Every time I go out there, I try to go out with confidence,\u201d Dadiet said. \u201cBecause I know I\u2019m not going to get that much time. So I\u2019ve been working with the G-League team to get some reps and it definitely feels good.\u201d<\/p>\n Josh Hart, an enthusiastic Yankees fan despite growing up in the D.C. area, will get his own bobblehead in The Bronx.<\/p>\n The Yankees announced Friday that Sept. 25 against the Orioles is Josh Hart Bobblehead Night, with the first 18,000 fans receiving his mini figure that is holding a bat in his left hand, a basketball in his right.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t wait for it. Obviously I love my Yanks,\u201d Hart said Friday. \u201cSo being able to do that is super cool. I\u2019m super excited when that opportunity came to us. And we really jumped on it.\u201d<\/p>\n Josh Hart gestures to the bench after hitting a 3-pointer in the Knicks\u2019 road win over the Nuggets. AP<\/p>\n Hart is the grand-nephew of Yankees legendary catcher Elston Howard. He wore Howard\u2019s No. 32 jersey while throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at a Yankees game in September 2024.<\/p>\n This year, Hart\u2019s bobblehead giveaway is the day before CC Sabathia\u2019s jersey is retired at Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s my first bobblehead doll ever,\u201d Hart said. \u201cSo good vibes.\u201d<\/p>\n If not for the controversial no-call in Wednesday\u2019s loss to the Thunder<\/a>, Jalen Brunson would\u2019ve collected a career-best four charges drawn in one game.<\/p>\n![\"Pac\u00f4me](\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/338839d3d15d2d5fc317ebe4f0cf1b7d.jpeg\"\/)
