Landry Shamet Joining The Knicks On A One-Year Deal
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, free-agent guard Landry Shamet agreed to a one-year, non-guaranteed deal with the New York Knicks. The 27-year-old has bounced around the National Basketball Association over the years, making stops in Philadelphia, Los Angeles (Clippers), Brooklyn, Phoenix, and most recently, Washington. He appeared in 348 regular-season games for those clubs, averaging 8.7 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.6 assists. The Knicks' roster is loaded with talent, so Shamet will likely spend most of his time on the bench, assuming he makes the team. As a result, he won't find his way onto many fantasy rosters in any format ahead of the 2024-25 campaign.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet has become a free agent after the team declined a $11 million option on his contract. Shamet spent only one season in Washington, averaging 7.1 points in 15.8 minutes. As a three-point specialist, Shamet should receive interest on the open market, although he will definitely have to settle for much less money than the team option he had on his old deal. Shamet has been a 38.4 percent career shooter from deep, averaging 8.7 points across 348 games.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) will miss his eighth straight game on Monday versus the Bulls. Shamet has been shelved with a left calf strain, and it is unknown when he will return. Before missing time, he averaged 7.1 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 46 contests. Washington could potentially have seven players out with injuries for Monday's game, with 27-year-old guard Jordan Poole (ankle) listed as questionable.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) will sit out a fourth straight game on Sunday against Boston. Shamet has been shelved with a left calf strain and will have the opportunity to return on Tuesday against Houston. He's one of seven Washington players out with injuries at present, meaning the team is down to bare bones ahead of a very challenging matchup. Corey Kispert and Jordan Poole should be the head honchos for the Wizards against Boston.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) will miss a third consecutive game on Saturday versus Chicago. He's dealing with a calf strain, meaning it's looking likely Shamet won't be available for Sunday's clash with Boston either. With Tyus Jones (back) and Deni Avdija (knee) also possibly out on Saturday, Washington's rotation could look very unusual. Jared Butler and Johnny Davis will have a chance to get healthy minutes for once, with Jordan Poole and Corey Kispert getting a larger say on offense against a team that is giving up a league-high 39.7 attempts from three-point range.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) will be absent for a second consecutive game on Thursday versus Houston. The 27-year-old sniper suffered a left calf strain against Miami on Sunday, and it might take a while until he's healthy to play again. Shamet's absence gives the Washington bench around 16 extra minutes to share around. Jordan Poole is the leader of the second unit, even seeing 30-plus occasionally. However, Thursday's matchup isn't a good one for Washington's bench mob on paper, as only four teams have allowed fewer bench points than the Rockets in 2023-24.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. Shamet was forced to miss Friday's game due to the same issue. He was only able to play seven minutes off the bench before exiting due to left calf soreness. There's a decent chance he does miss some time, but fantasy managers will have to check back for another update. Johnny Davis figures to see an expanded role if Shamet does miss time.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) will play on Sunday versus Miami. He missed Friday's game against Charlotte because of calf soreness. However, the 26-year-old will return to the lineup after just a one-game absence. Shamet has averaged 7.3 points in 45 games this season. But that's not enough to make him a worthwhile fantasy asset, so he'll likely remain benched in most leagues.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) is questionable heading into Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. Shamet missed Washington's previous game against the Charlotte Hornets thanks to left calf soreness. The reserve has become a solid asset, averaging 18 minutes per game since February. Bilal Coulibaly and Tyus Jones will likely continue to start, but the bench players will benefit most. Corey Kispert and Jordan Poole each saw 30-plus minutes off the bench in Friday's game without Shamet. Poole has averaged 22.8 points on 3.4 three-pointers made since moving to the bench to turn his woeful season around, and his usage only gets better off the bench if Shamet is out.
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Hornets. Dealing with calf soreness, the 26-year-old likely suffered his injury during Wednesday's loss to Orlando. If the guard is ruled out, Jordan Poole, Corey Kispert, and Johnny Davis are candidates to receive increased playing time. Shamet has averaged 7.6 points per game, 1.4 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 45 contests.
