Knicks signing Landry Shamet to one-year deal as guard depth gets latest boost
NY Post
The Knicks added a veteran shooter roughly two weeks before training camp.
Landry Shamet, a 27-year-old combo guard, agreed to a one-year deal with the team, a source confirmed Saturday.
Before the signing, the Knicks had one roster spot open with 14 guaranteed contracts (they can hold up to 15 players in the regular season).
Though it’s unclear if Shamet’s one-year deal is guaranteed, the expectation is he’ll be on the final roster after choosing the Knicks over two other suitors, a source told The Post.
The Knicks, according to multiple sources, are still exploring ways to address the center position after losing Isaiah Hartenstein to the Thunder.
The free-agent market has dried up at that position, so it’s more likely the Knicks try to find a solution via trade.

Victor Robles put his body on the line to make an impressive catch on Sunday, but had to be carted off the field because of it.
It’s not every day that someone is chirping at the baby-faced assassin – let alone an opposing coach.
There will be enough time to obsess over the things the Knicks don’t have, and why they don’t do well. Bank on that. There will be acres of space and hours of conversation devoted to the vast chasm between where the Knicks are and where they want to be — and, perhaps more tellingly, where they were expected to be. That’s coming, don’t worry.
Peter Laviolette chuckled as a grin started to spread across his face.
David Peterson bent over behind the mound in Sunday’s fifth inning, giving the appearance of perhaps a back ailment.
New Jets coach Aaron Glenn will stand in front of his team on Monday as the Jets begin their offseason program.
He will be tempting, of course, because by the time all is said and done, Kevin Durant will be on the short list of the greatest players in NBA history. Top 10? Maybe. Top 20? For sure.
So, another game like this winds up in the void column, with a void of scoring accompanied by a void of emotion, and you can select which is the chicken and which is the egg in this scenario.
Carlos Mendoza thought about it.
ATLANTA — Clearly upset that he was pulled before he could get a triple-double, Josh Hart stormed off the court with 90 seconds remaining, but both he and coach Tom Thibodeau took the flare-up in stride.
If you think that winning two playoff series with John Tortorella behind the bench over the 12 years after he left Broadway in 2013 looks good on his résumé and is worth the angst that always accompanies one of his administrations, be my guest and by all means hire this coach who essentially fired himself again last week in Philadelphia.
