"New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet will be reevaluated in the next few days after suffering a shoulder injury during Saturday night's loss to the Orlando Magic. Starting in place of the injured OG Anunoby, Shamet collided with Orlando's Wendell Carter Jr. and Jalen Suggs near midcourt during the first quarter. He immediately clutched his right shoulder and bounded off the court and to the Knicks' locker room while being escorted by a team trainer."
"The concern, however, is abundantly clear. This is the same shoulder that the veteran guard dislocated during the preseason last year, prompting the Knicks to waive him. He was re-signed by the team in December after making a full recovery, and made his season debut on Dec. 23. Shamet had been averaging 9.3 points per game while shooting 42.4% from three-point range as a key rotational player this season, which included a career-high 36 points last Friday against the Miami Heat."
Landry Shamet suffered a right shoulder injury after colliding with Wendell Carter Jr. and Jalen Suggs near midcourt and will be reevaluated in the next few days. He immediately clutched his right shoulder, went to the Knicks' locker room, and will travel with the team to Brooklyn for the next game. The injured shoulder is the same one dislocated during the preseason last year that led to his release and later re-signing; he made his season debut on Dec. 23. Shamet averaged 9.3 points and shot 42.4% from three, including a career-high 36 points versus Miami. The Knicks are already without OG Anunoby and had Miles McBride unavailable, with Josh Hart likely to start at small forward.
