Landry Shamet exits with shoulder injury in scary Knicks scene
NY Post
ORLANDO — It happened again.
Landry Shamet’s right shoulder appeared to pop out of its socket in the first quarter of Saturday’s 133-121 loss to the Magic, resembling the dislocation that sidelined the guard for months last season.
Shamet, who was coming off his best stretch with the Knicks — including a 36-point performance last Thursday at Madison Square Garden — ran into a hard screen set by Orlando center Wendell Carter Jr.
The impact appeared to dislodge Shamet’s shoulder, sending the 28-year-old darting to the locker room while holding his arm.
Officially, Shamet was ruled out with a right shoulder injury and will undergo a further evaluation “in the coming days,” according to head coach Mike Brown. Adding insult to injury, Shamet was whistled for a foul on the screen by Carter.
“It was tough, man,” Karl-Anthony Towns said. “He’s been playing his ass off. He’s been such a big contributor to our team, and these last couple weeks, he’s been able to show the NBA and fans of New York why he’s so valuable.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
