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).
