For as much as New York Knicks guard Josh Hart hustles on the court, he carves out plenty of time for his own sports fandom. With his social media posting about other leagues comes inevitable confusion.

On Sunday morning, Hart -- an avid fan of English Premier League side Chelsea -- was tuned in to the day's action across the Atlantic. Tottenham Hotspur, a London rival of Chelsea, lost a wild 6-3 affair to top of the table Liverpool that day, prompting a mocking post from Hart.

Spurs = 💩💩💩💩

The problem? Hart's Knicks are also facing a Spurs squad this week -- hosting the NBA's San Antonio Spurs on Christmas Day at Madison Square Garden. Hart was asked ahead of the clash about the post, prompting him to explain that he meant a different team.

"I wasn't talking about those Spurs," Hart clarified to an assortment of laughing reporters. "The Spurs I was talking about is trash. Tottenham? The North London one? Yeah, they trash."

It's not the first time Hart's propensity for posting about other sports has led to confusion in the NBA. In late September, with buzz of New York trading for Karl-Anthony Towns growing, Hart posted "Uhh...are we serious?" before clarifying on X minutes later that he had been referring to the Chelsea match.
