What has Josh Hart said about Chelsea?
SI.com's SI On Knicks reported that Josh Hart supports Chelsea, and the outlet attributes the quote to Hart himself. "I've been like a die-hard, like really dedicated fan, and I've been supporting them since I was 16, 17," he said. The page carrying the quote does not state a date, so the timing of the interview is unclear. Because the claim comes through a report and was not confirmed in a source of his own, the fandom is best described as reported rather than established.
When did Josh Hart become a Chelsea fan?
Going by his own account as SI On Knicks relays it, Josh Hart has supported Chelsea since he was 16 or 17. He was born on March 6, 1995, and played at Villanova from 2013 to 2017. He has not tied the support to a particular match or player, and the sourcing says nothing about what drew him to the club.
Did Josh Hart grow up a Chelsea fan?
In part, going by the age he gave. Chelsea is a Premier League club based in London, and Josh Hart was born in Silver Spring, Maryland, and went to high school at Wheaton in Silver Spring and at Sidwell Friends School in Washington, D.C. Nothing in the sourcing connects him to London, so the fandom does not come from a hometown tie. It appears to be something he picked up as a teenager, which fits with him saying he began following the club at 16 or 17, not as a young child. He was born in 1995 and played at Villanova from 2013 to 2017.

Kevin Garnett has also been reported as a Chelsea fan. As with Hart, that is a report and not a confirmed statement.
What else is known about Josh Hart's fandoms?
Chelsea is not the only team he has been linked to. The Washington Commanders have also been reported as a team he follows. Hart was drafted by the Utah Jazz in 2017 (30th pick) and has played for the Lakers, Pelicans, Trail Blazers and, since 2023, the Knicks, though none of those stops is connected to his Chelsea support in the sourcing.
