Ex-Pelicans Josh Hart, Matt Ryan heartbroken by ᴅᴇᴀᴅly New Orleans attack: ‘Just a tragedy’

Josh Hart spent 2 ¹/₂ seasons with the Pelicans, and the outspoken Knicks guard expressed sadness following the fatal attack early in the morning on New Year’s Day in New Orleans.

At least 15 people were killed and injured dozens when a driver rammed a pickup truck into a crowd along Bourbon Street in the French Quarter before being killed in a firefight with police.

“Obviously, our hearts and prayers go out to the people there that were affected,” Hart said before Wednesday’s game against the Jazz at the Garden. “I loved my time in New Orleans. Bourbon Street, spent my fair share of time on Bourbon Street. So your heart goes out to everyone there, and your prayers goes out to everyone there.
