Knicks Re-Sign Landry Shamet to One-Year Deal, Use Final Minimum Slot

The veteran returns on a minimum contract that reinforces the Knicks’ shooting depth under second‑apron limits.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Shams Charania, citing agent George S. Langberg, reported the agreement that keeps Shamet in New York for his eighth NBA season.
  • New York used its final veteran‑minimum slot on the deal, leaving the regular‑season roster largely set unless a trade opens space.
  • The Knicks also added Garrison Mathews on a training‑camp contract to compete for a standard spot, with reports indicating he could vie for a similar role.
  • Shamet appeared in 50 games last season after a preseason shoulder dislocation and shot 39.7% from three, adding 11 playoff outings as a floor‑spacer.
  • His role under new head coach Mike Brown remains unsettled following other bench additions such as Jordan Clarkson and Guerschon Yabusele.
