Knicks Guard Josh Hart Finally Teams Up With Mike & Ikes Candy Co.

It paid for New York Knicks guard Josh Hart to have a sweet tooth. 

After munching on some Mike & Ikes after a nationally televised NBA Playoff game, Hart pulled off an unlikely partnership with the candy company.

Hart shared on social media that he's got big things coming, posting a box of Mike and Ikes, a long-awaited moment for the longtime candy fanatic.

"My dream has come true! @mikeandike big things coming," Hart posted on Monday.

The New York Energizer Bunny's secret for staying active for 48 minutes of NBA action is eating handfuls of candy. Hart previously shared that he'd indulge in a bag of popcorn and a box of Mike and Ikes before every game.

Hart chowed down on Mike and Ikes after a Herculean performance in Game 2. The ex-Villanova Wildcat scored 21 points with a barrage of made three-pointers and secured 15 rebounds. Hart's contributions elevated the Knicks to a 2-0 series lead, now 3-1 after Sunday's Game 4.

Mike and Ike noticed and reached out to the Knicks star for what will be an incredible team-up. Hart's childlike humor on the sidelines counters his veteran presence on the Knicks. Imagine a role-player akin to Draymond Green but without all the malevolence.

Hart's past headlines include singing on the Knicks sidelines and eating loudly on the post-game mic.

Playing on a Knicks team that is expected to make a deep run this postseason, Mike and Ike may have struck gold by going all in on the New York star.

Knicks fans have been rapid for the team these NBA Playoffs. Knicks fans showed up in large quantities at Sunday's away game at Wells Fargo Center, making the Philadelphia 76ers' home sound like MSG.

But when you're a core member of the Knicks' impressive round 1 start, you can pretty much do what you want.
