Fantasy Basketball: Watch Landry Shamet Before the Knicks’ Home Back-to-Back

New York plays on consecutive nights at Madison Square Garden. Shamet is worth a look for 3-pointers in deeper leagues if Josh Hart stays out.

Landry Shamet is worth watching in deep fantasy basketball leagues before the Knicks play twice in two nights at Madison Square Garden. New York hosts Milwaukee on Tuesday and Cleveland on Wednesday. A waiver add before Tuesday’s tip can cover both games in leagues with daily lineup changes.

The decision starts with Josh Hart’s right ankle. The NBA’s Saturday morning injury report ruled Hart out for Saturday night at Cleveland. Shamet started Wednesday against Chicago and took five 3-point attempts in just under 25 minutes, making one. Miles McBride made two 3s but played only 11 minutes in the same game.

Check Hart’s status and Shamet’s minutes after Saturday’s game. If Hart remains out and Shamet keeps the starting job, he’s a short-term option when you need 3-pointers and have two lineup openings. If Hart is back or you can only use Shamet once, save the move for a player with more guaranteed minutes.
