Shamet posted 29 points (9-17 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and a steal in 40 minutes during Sunday's 113-105 win over the Nets.
Shamet was given the green light Sunday as the team rested its starters for the regular-season finale and he took full advantage, recording season highs in points, three-pointers made and minutes played. Despite the strong performance, Shamet will likely see a modest role going forward as the team shifts its sights to postseason action.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Scores nine points in loss
Rotowire
Shamet chipped in nine points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and two assists across 15 minutes during Thursday's 115-106 loss to the Pistons.
Although the Knicks were without Josh Hart (knee) and OG Anunoby (thumb) for the front end of this back-to-back set, Shamet didn't see much run. Instead, Miles McBride drew the start and put up a strong showing in 39 minutes.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Erupts for 20 points
Rotowire
Shamet totaled 20 points (7-12 FG, 6-11 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 105-91 victory over the 76ers.
Shamet recorded season-high marks in points (20) and three-pointers (6), although this looks like an outlier performance. The Knicks will be shorthanded again Wednesday against the Cavaliers due to Jalen Brunson (ankle), Miles McBride (groin) and Cameron Payne (ankle) all still being out, so Shamet will likely continue to see healthy workloads.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Top scorer off bench in victory
Rotowire
Shamet posted 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal over 19 minutes in Sunday's 110-93 win over Portland.
Shamet shined offensively off the bench in Sunday's contest, connecting on a team-high trio of threes and leading all Knicks bench players in scoring in a double-digit effort. Shamet matched a season high in threes made with a mark he has now recorded in five outings. He has reached double figures in scoring on five occasions, including in three of his last five contests.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Scoreless in 19 minutes
Rotowire
Shamet supplied zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and one steal in 19 minutes during Thursday's 115-98 loss to Charlotte.
Jalen Brunson (ankle) ditched his walking boot and was able to do some light shooting Thursday, suggesting he's nearing a return, but he still doesn't have an official return timetable. Despite playing 21.4 minutes per contest over his last four games, Shamet has been very quiet with 3.3 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Plays well off bench
Rotowire
Shamet closed with 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt), three rebounds and two steals over 24 minutes during Monday's 133-104 win over the Kings.
With Jalen Brunson (ankle) expected to miss a couple weeks, Shamet could continue to see a larger role in the second unit while Miles McBride fills in as the starter. This performance was a bit of an outlier, however, as Shamet was able to take advantage of some garbage time in the blowout win -- 10 of Shamet's points came in the fourth quarter.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Sees extended action in OT win
Rotowire
Shamet recorded seven points (2-4 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 17 minutes in Thursday's 113-111 overtime win over the Bulls.
Shamet has seen more playing time lately, as injuries to OG Anunoby (foot) and Josh Hart (knee) have seen a short Knicks bench get even shorter. In his last three games, the journeyman has averaged 7.3 points in 18.0 minutes per game. Should Anunoby and Hart continue to miss games, Shamet figures to continue playing more minutes.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Logs 17 minutes in loss
Rotowire
Shamet ended with four points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound, one block and one steal in 17 minutes during Saturday's 139-126 loss to the Bulls.
Shamet continues to play limited minutes off the bench, having exceeded 15 minutes only once this season. To this point, he has connected on just three triples across seven games. His value to the team relies on his ability to spread the floor, something that at this stage is yet to come to fruition.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Makes impact in limited time
Rotowire
Shamet amassed seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound and two steals in 10 minutes during Friday's 108-85 win over the Magic.
Shamet appeared for just 10 minutes off the bench in Friday's contest but made the most of his time on the court while leading all Knicks bench players in scoring to go along with a team-high-tying steals total. Shamet will continue to try to work his way back to 100 percent after missing most of the season to this point with a dislocated right shoulder, so expect Shamet's production to continue on a positive trajectory as he gets more time with New York.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Expected to miss start of season
Rotowire
The Knicks announced Friday that Shamet dislocated his right shoulder and will be re-evaluated at a later date.
Shamet exited Tuesday's preseason game against the Hornets after injuring his shoulder while reaching for the ball. The 27-year-old does not have a timetable for his return to game action, though he will likely miss significant time. Shamet is currently signed to a training camp deal, and the Knicks have until January to guarantee his contract.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Headed to locker room
Rotowire
Shamet exited Tuesday's preseason game versus the Hornets with 3:38 remaining in the third quarter and headed to the locker room due to an apparent shoulder injury, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
Shamet seems unlikely to re-enter the game Tuesday as the Knicks could play it cautiously during the preseason. Shamet recorded eight points (3-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt) and two rebounds before exiting.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Slides into starting unit
Rotowire
Shamet will start in Tuesday's preseason game against the Hornets, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
Shamet will enter the starting five with the Knicks deciding to rest their usual starters Tuesday. The 27-year-old is expected to add depth in the backcourt this season, though he will likely struggle to find significant playing time competing for minutes with Miles McBride and Cameron Payne behind Jalen Brunson (rest) and Mikal Bridges (rest).

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Likely to secure roster spot
Rotowire
Shamet is increasingly likely to earn a roster spot in the Knicks' opening night rotation, head coach Tom Thibodeau implied to Stefan Bondy of The New York Post. "I don't make the final decision on that, but I'm basing it on what [Shamet's] done on the floor. He's really done well," Thibodeau said.
Shamet is playing on a non-guaranteed deal, but based on Thibodeau's words, he's been a standout performer in camp thus far. Given that the Knicks will hand one of their two open roster spots to a veteran, it seems that spot is Shamet's to lose. Shamet averaged 7.1 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 15.8 minutes across 46 regular-season appearances, including five starts, for the Wizards in 2023-24 before missing the final 18 games with a left calf strain.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Participating in camp
Rotowire
Shamet (calf) was spotted participating in training camp Tuesday, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
Shamet missed the final 18 games of the 2023-24 season due to a left calf strain while with the Wizards, but he appears to be all systems go for the Knicks. New York has a stacked starting lineup, but their lack of depth could be an opportunity for Shamet to earn some minutes in the backcourt with his shooting ability.

The 27-year-old guard will likely compete for a depth role in the backcourt, and he is a career 38.4 percent three-point shooter.

The Wizards declined the $11 million team option on Shamet's (calf) contract Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Shamet spent only one season with the Wizards, during which he averaged a career-low 7.1 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists while shooting only 33.8 percent from deep. The 27-year-old is a career 38.4 percent shooter from three-point range, and he will join the free-agency market.
