Knicks re-sign guard Landry Shamet to one-year deal

The Knicks are re-signing veteran guard Landry Shamet to fill their final roster spot.

A source tells SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley that Shamet had other options but prioritized continuity in returning to the Knicks, and wanted to help the Knicks compete for a title.

Shamet, 28, averaged 5.7 points per game and shot 39.7 percent from three-point range over 50 games with New York last season.

After signing Jordan Clarkson and Guerschon Yabusele, the Knicks had enough money for one veteran minimum contract and one rookie contract before they reach the second apron. Begley previously reported that New York saw Shamet as a possibility and he was open to returning to the team.

Shamet played in 11 playoff games last season, often in mop-up duty, but provided a couple sparks off the bench, including scoring 12 points in the Knicks' Eastern Conference Finals Game 6 loss to the Indiana Pacers.

He, along with Clarkson and Yabusele, will join Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby, Karl-Anthony Towns, Mitchell Robinson, Josh Hart, and Miles McBride as the rest of new coach Mike Brown's rotation for the 2025-26 season.
