Knicks Rule Out Landry Shamet With Right Shoulder Injury, Await Further Evaluation

Further imaging will guide a medical plan that could trigger roster decisions due to his non‑guaranteed contract.

Overview

  • Shamet was officially listed as out for Monday’s game against the Nets with a right shoulder injury, per the NBA injury report.
  • The play and his reaction matched his 2024 preseason dislocation, and reporters characterize the incident as a likely re-dislocation, though no timetable has been set.
  • Head coach Mike Brown said Shamet will undergo full imaging and evaluation in the coming days to determine the extent of the injury.
  • Because his deal does not become fully guaranteed until early January, a surgical path or lengthy rehab could lead the Knicks to consider waiving him.
  • His absence hits a thin rotation after a strong start to the season that included a recent 36-point game, with OG Anunoby still out with a hamstring and Miles McBride no longer on the injury report for Brooklyn.
