New Knicks Rumors Reveal Landry Shamet Contract Details After 2026 NBA Title The New York Knicks have reportedly finalized a new contract with veteran sharpshooter Landry Shamet, securing his return for the upcoming season. According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Shamet is set to sign a four-year, $24 million deal to remain with the team. The agreement comes after the Knicks’ historic 2026 NBA Finals victory, which ended a 53-year championship drought. Shamet, 29, has been a key contributor for the Knicks over the past two seasons, playing a pivotal role in their playoff success. Despite being limited to just 51 games during the 2025-26 season due to a right shoulder sprain, his defensive presence and shooting accuracy made him an essential part of the roster when healthy. During the regular season, he averaged 9.3 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 23.0 minutes per game, shooting 43.7% from the field and 39.2% from beyond the arc. His impact was particularly evident in the postseason, where he stepped up in critical moments. In the Eastern Conference Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Shamet delivered a standout performance, hitting 11-of-12 three-pointers in the series. Across the playoffs, he averaged 6.0 points and 1.1 rebounds per game, maintaining a 45.3% field goal efficiency and 47.5% three-point shooting rate. The Knicks’ decision to re-sign Shamet was anticipated, as ESPN’s Tim Bontemps noted on May 28 that there was “belief” he would return to New York. The move underscores the team’s commitment to maintaining their championship-winning roster, with Shamet’s experience and shooting ability providing a reliable option off the bench.#shams_charania #new_york_knicks #landry_shamet #eastern_confrence_finals #2026_nba_finals
