Landry Shamet exits with shoulder injury in scary Knicks scene

Knicks Guard Landry Shamet's Season in Jeopardy After Dislocating Shoulder on Hard Screen.

In a shocking turn of events, New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet suffered a dislocated shoulder during Saturday’s game against the Orlando Magic. The 28-year-old point guard's right shoulder appeared to pop out of its socket after being hit with a hard screen by Magic center Wendell Carter Jr.

Shamet was immediately taken off the court and held his arm as he darted into the locker room, signaling that he would not be returning to the game. An MRI is expected to confirm the severity of the injury, which could potentially end Shamet's season.

Last year, Shamet initially suffered a dislocation in his shooting shoulder but chose to rehab rather than undergo surgery. He returned to play in December and was an integral part of the Knicks' rotation for the remainder of last season. This year, he had emerged as an important starter, starting six games due to injuries to other teammates.

Dislocated shoulders are prone to re-injury without surgical intervention, which could have kept Shamet sidelined for up to six months. Shamet is currently playing on a deal that won't become fully guaranteed until January, and his injury status will significantly impact the Knicks' depth chart moving forward.

The loss of Shamet adds another layer of complexity to an already depleted Knicks roster, with guard OG Anunoby also sitting out due to a hamstring strain. Coach Mike Brown was forced to give more first-quarter minutes to rookie Mohamed Diawara as the team navigates its injury woes.
 
ugh this is bad for them I thought Shamet was doing well he's been playing key games and now this πŸ€• hopefully it's not season ending but dislocated shoulders are no joke, so many injuries happening in basketball right now
 
OMG πŸ€• u gotta feel bad for landry shamet! dislocated shoulder is no joke, esp when u just started makin' a name 4 urself on the knicks. hopefully it's not season finishin', but honestly without surgery, his chances r slim πŸ˜”. we all remember last yr drama with his shooting shoulder... πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ now it seems like his career could be hittin hard πŸ’”. what's gonna happen to the knicks roster? they're already strugglin w/ injuries... 🀯 does this mean more of mohamed diawara in action? 🀞
 
Ugh man this is terrible news for Landry Shamet πŸ€• his season is basically done and it's gonna be tough for him to get back from a dislocated shoulder. I mean we all know how prone those things are to re-injury, especially if you don't have surgery. It's like the Knicks already had depth issues with OG Anunoby out too so this just throws another wrench in their plans.

The thing that really gets me is Shamet rehabbing last year and still dealing with it now... I get it can happen to anyone but still. The injury status will definitely make things more complicated for the team and I'm sure they'll have to find a new rotation without him. Mike Brown's gotta do some creative roster managing to make it work, maybe give Diawara more minutes or something. It's gonna be tough for Shamet to bounce back from this one... 😟
 
Omg what's up with these NBA players and their fragile egos lol πŸ€£πŸ€ I mean don't get me wrong, dislocated shoulders are serious injuries but come on Landry Shamet knew the risks when he chose not to have surgery last year and still played through it. Like, he got a second chance and now this happens again? It's all about the money and contracts at this point πŸ’Έ The Knicks are gonna regret signing him to that deal, they're basically putting their season on hold because of one injury πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ
 
Ugh, this is so frustrating!!! 🀯😑 Landry Shamet's season is literally hanging by a thread right now... like, what even is the point of having a strong bench if you can just lose another key player to an avoidable injury? And don't even get me started on Wendell Carter Jr. - that hard screen was no accident, it was a reckless move that could've cost Landry his career... or worse, his season πŸ€•.

I feel so bad for Shamet, he's been working so hard and then this happens... I hope he gets the best treatment possible and recovers quickly, but at the same time, I'm worried about what this means for the Knicks' chances of making it to the playoffs. OG Anunoby sitting out with a hamstring strain is bad enough, now Landry's injury is throwing everything off balance πŸ€―πŸ’”.

And can we talk about how ridiculous it is that he has to deal with this while playing on a non-guaranteed contract? Like, shouldn't he be able to focus on his game without worrying about whether or not he'll even have a job after the season ends? 😩 It's just so unfair...
 
omg πŸ€• what's going on with landry shamet?? he's like, super young and has his whole career ahead of him and now this... dislocated shoulder is a bummer, i feel for the dude πŸ˜” especially since it's not just one time thing, these kinds of injuries are prone to happen again if u dont get surgery. u gotta wonder how many times did he get hit like that on screen? 🀯 coach brown's gonna have to scramble with his depth chart now, OG anunoby out too... this injury is a big blow
 
πŸ€” This is so suspicious... Shamet gets dislocated for the second time in his career, and now he's done for the season? 🚨 It looks like they're trying to manipulate the game and weaken their team on purpose. First, it's OG Anunoby with a hamstring strain, now this. Are they doing some kind of team sabotage? πŸ’Έ And what's up with Diawara getting more minutes out of nowhere? Sounds like someone's trying to create a roster shake-up... πŸ”„ I'm not buying the "injury" excuse for this one... 😏
 
I don’t usually comment but I feel bad for Landry Shamet, he's been having a solid season and now this... πŸ€• A dislocated shoulder is no joke, especially considering how painful it must be to deal with. Last year was rough for him too, rehab was a real bummer. But you know what? You can't control injuries, and it's not like he could've seen it coming. His situation is kinda tough because if he goes under the knife, it'll add up to more than 6 months of recovery time... 🀯 That's just brutal for a guy who's trying to make an impact on this team.
 
man, this is not good news for the Knicks... Landry Shamet's season is literally hanging by a thread πŸ€•. He's been having a solid run so far and now this. If he decides to go under the knife, it's gonna be a tough road to recovery. Dislocated shoulders can be nasty business, especially if you're not done rehabbing from last year's injury.

They should've seen that coming with him playing on a deal that doesn't become fully guaranteed till Jan... now his injury status is gonna shake things up in the locker room πŸ”„. Coach Mike Brown's gotta start making some tough decisions about who to play and when, especially with OG Anunoby also out with a hamstring strain. This roster just got even more complicated 😬.
 
Ugh this is so frustrating πŸ€•! Landry Shamet is such a great player and now he's got to deal with this shoulder injury πŸ€•. I mean, I know dislocated shoulders are bad but it's like, why does it have to happen now? When he was just starting to get his groove back after last year's rehab πŸ’”.

And the worst part is that if he doesn't get surgery, there's a good chance he'll be out for months 😩. I don't know how much more this team can take with all these injuries πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. The coach is already having to give more minutes to that rookie Diawara... like what are the chances of him even being good? πŸ˜‚

Anyway, I hope Shamet gets the help he needs and recovers quickly πŸ’ͺ. He's an important player for this team and we need him back ASAP πŸ•°οΈ.
 
ugh man this is terrible news for the knicks... dislocating ur shoulder 2 times in 1 yr is a huge red flag, cant believe shamet chose not 2 do surgery last yr and it cost him again now they gotta deal w/ depth chart issues & og anunoby's hamstring strain already has em in a tough spot coach mike brown must be pulling his hair out πŸ€―πŸ’‰
 
Ugh this is so sad for Landry Shamet πŸ€•. He's been doing really well on the court and now he's gotta deal with a dislocated shoulder 😬. I remember last year when he got injured in his shooting shoulder and didn't have surgery, it was tough to watch him struggle. Hopefully he'll get the treatment he needs and can come back stronger πŸ’ͺ. The Knicks are already losing some of their best players, now they gotta deal with Shamet's injury on top of OG Anunoby's hamstring strain 🀯. This season is shaping up to be super tough for them 😩.
 
πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ u gotta feel bad for landry shamet but is it really a shock he got hurt? i mean, he's 28 and still playing in the nba - those physicals are gonna catch up with him eventually πŸ’ͺ. btw, what's the point of even having an mri if we already know it's a dislocation? just let the doc tell u to sit out for a bit πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
 
Oh man πŸ€•, I'm so bummed for Landry Shamet! He's been doing so well this season and now it sounds like his season is in jeopardy. A dislocated shoulder can be super painful and if he doesn't get surgery, there's a good chance he'll end up re-injuring it. It's tough to see him go down when the Knicks already have a lot of injuries going on. OG Anunoby sitting out with a hamstring strain is bad news too. I hope Landry recovers quickly and can come back strong, but it's looking like his season might be over 🀞
 
Ugh 😩 this is so frustrating for fans! Shamet's injury might not just be physical, his season could be over πŸ€• and now we're left wondering what could've been. I mean, he was playing some great basketball too πŸ’ͺ and his absence is gonna hurt the team. It's a shame because I was loving his comeback last year 🌟 and it looks like all that hard work might've gone to waste... not to mention the financial implications for both Shamet and the Knicks 😳.
 
OMG u guys!! Landry Shamet's season is literally done πŸ€•πŸ‘Ž what if he had surgery last yr and his shoulder wouldn't pop out again?! πŸ€” I'm soooo rooting for him πŸ™πŸ˜” now the Knicks gotta find another point guard ASAP 😩 it's already a mess with Og out too 🀯 at least Diawara showed some promise 😊 coach Mike Brown needs to make some major changes if he wanna get that win πŸ’ͺπŸ’₯
 
πŸ€• man that's so sad for Landry Shamet... like he's been having some issues with his shoulder and now this... hard screen is nasty πŸ˜’. I remember when Kyrie Irving had that same issue in 2020, it was a big blow to the Celtics' season too 🐦. This guy is gonna have to take care of himself for a while if he wants to make it through the rest of the year πŸ‘. The Knicks are gonna have to scramble now with Shamet out, can't have OG Anunoby sitting out too, that's just a bad break... poor guys πŸ€•
 
😬 that's so sad for Landry Shamet! I feel bad for him, dislocating shoulder is such a bummer πŸ€•, especially since he was on a roll this season πŸ’ͺ. six months without playing basketball is like an eternity ⏰... it's gonna be tough for the Knicks to replace him too πŸ€”, they're already dealing with other injuries πŸ‘€. maybe Shamet made a mistake not getting surgery last year? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ either way, hope he recovers fast and gets back on the court ASAP πŸ”₯
 
Ugh 😩 this is like bad luck for Landry Shamet πŸ€•. I mean, he's been coming on strong and then BAM! Dislocated shoulder out of nowhere πŸ’₯. It's gotta be tough being in that position, you know? One wrong move and your season could be over πŸ’”. The Knicks' depth chart is already thin, now they're gonna have to deal with Landry not being able to contribute. OG Anunoby sitting out too? That's just great πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. Coach Brown gotta juggle all these injuries like a circus act πŸŽͺ...
