Knicks Guard Landry Shamet Exits Game with Right Shoulder Injury

URGENT UPDATE: New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet has been ruled out for the remainder of today’s game against the Orlando Magic due to a right shoulder injury. The incident occurred just 9:17 into the first quarter when Shamet collided with a screen set by Wendell Carter Jr., leaving him in significant pain as he exited the court with his right arm visibly dangling.

This injury is particularly concerning as Shamet previously dislocated his right shoulder during the preseason last year in October 2024. His absence comes at a critical time, as he was experiencing his best performance of the season, including a remarkable 36-point game in a 140-132 victory over Miami. Just last Wednesday, he contributed nine points in a crucial win over Dallas, showcasing his importance to the team.

The Knicks have also reported that Miles McBride is questionable for today’s game due to illness, adding further uncertainty to the roster. Fans and analysts will be closely monitoring updates on both players as the Knicks aim to maintain their momentum in the season.

Stay tuned for further updates on Shamet’s condition and the implications for the Knicks as they navigate this developing situation.
