Shamet supplied 18 points (6-7 FG, 6-6 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and two steals in 15 minutes during Wednesday's 120-66 victory over the Nets.
Shamet appeared to shake off all signs of rust in New York's rout against Brooklyn. The Knicks reserve played in his fourth game after a nearly two-month absence due to shoulder sprain and scored more than in his three prior contests combined Wednesday night. Shamet's shooting is one way for him to earn playing time in a deep New York backcourt.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Drills two triples in return
Rotowire
Shamet (shoulder) recorded six points (2-7 FG, 2-7 3Pt) and one steal in 16 minutes Thursday in the Knicks' 126-113 loss to the Warriors.
Shamet took the court for the first time since Nov. 22 after missing nearly two months while recovering from a right shoulder sprain. Even with Jalen Brunson (ankle) sitting out Thursday, Shamet held a relatively limited role off the bench, and the 16-minute workload he received could be fairly close to the norm for the veteran shooting guard moving forward. Unless he unexpectedly sees his playing time tick up dramatically in the games to come, Shamet should be viewed as little more than a streaming option for three-pointers in deeper fantasy leagues.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Will play Thursday
Rotowire
Shamet (shoulder) will play Thursday versus the Warriors, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
This will be Shamet's first game since Nov. 22, so he'll likely have some minutes restrictions in his first game back. Managers in most leagues can take a wait-and-see approach with Shamet.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Upgraded to questionable
Rotowire
Shamet (shoulder) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
Shamet has a chance to conclude nearly a two-month stay on the sidelines with a sprained shoulder. His return would create a logjam for playing time in the backcourt with Tyler Kolek, Miles McBride and Jordan Clarkson, though Jalen Brunson (ankle) is unavailable for Thursday.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Practices Tuesday
Rotowire
Shamet (shoulder) practiced Tuesday, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
Shamet has been out since November due to a shoulder injury, but he appears to be in the final stages of his rehab process. He's already been ruled out for Wednesday's game, and the Knicks will likely want him to get through a few practices before he's cleared to return, so it's unlikely he'll play Thursday versus the Warriors.

Rotowire
Shamet is out for Friday's game against the Suns with a right shoulder sprain.
Shamet hasn't taken the court since Nov. 22, and he appears to remain out indefinitely.

Shamet was given a four-week timetable for a return after being diagnosed with a sprained right shoulder back on Nov. 26, though the Knicks haven't yet offered an update on his recovery.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Starting Monday
Rotowire
Shamet will start Monday's game against the Heat, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
With Jalen Brunson (ankle) and OG Anunoby (hamstring) sidelined, Shamet will rejoin the starting five.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Career-high 36 points vs. Miami
Rotowire
Shamet supplied 36 points (12-19 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three assists and two rebounds over 37 minutes during New York's 140-132 win over Miami on Friday.
Shamet was already slated for an expanded role for Friday's game after Jalen Brunson (ankle) was ruled out, but the former was relied on even more heavily after OG Anunoby was forced to leave in the first quarter due to a hamstring injury. Karl-Anthony Towns gave the Knicks their 10-point halftime lead by scoring 31 of his game-high 39 points through the first two quarters, but it was Shamet who helped New York close things out with 30 of his 36 points coming in the second half. The 36 points are a career high for Shamet and the fourth 30-point outing of his eight-year NBA tenure. Brunson may not travel with the Knicks during their upcoming five-game road trip, and if Anunoby were to miss time due to his injury, then role players like Shamet, Jordan Clarkson, Miles McBride and others would be poised for bigger roles on both ends of the floor.
