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.
With the Yankees on an impressive run of mostly correct decisions, there’s some reason to leave them alone and just let the best team in the American League continue to roll. But they did raise serious doubt and leave room for suggestions (and even ridicule) following maybe the most inexplicable decision of this season, or any season.
The Giants have never been 0-2 under Brian Daboll, until now. They were 2-0 and flying high in 2022 and 1-1 after a rousing comeback in Arizona in 2023. So, this represents a low point as far as early-season difficulties for Daboll and the Giants. They had no business beating the Vikings in the opener and no business losing to the Commanders in Week 2. But here they are.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Harrison Butker kept making a lonely walk to midfield after each quarter Sunday to check on the direction of the wind, which tends to swirl inside Arrowhead Stadium. He did it one last time during the 2-minute warning, when his Chiefs were trailing the Bengals by two and trying to give him a winning field-goal attempt.
