New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet will be re-evaluated in four weeks as the recovers from a right shoulder sprain, sources tell ESPN's Shams Charania.
Shamet suffered the injury during the first quarter of last Saturday's game against the Magic when he ran into hard screen set by Orlando's Wendell Carter Jr. Shamet left the floor in obvious pain and did not return to the game.
Shamet has already begun the rehab process on his ailing shoulder, sources added.
Shamet has been one of the league's top 3-point shooters so far this season, averaging a career-best 42.4% from the arc, which helped him crack the Knicks starting lineup before sustaining the injury. Prior to the shoulder issue, he had put together his best five-game stretch for the Knicks this season, scoring in double figures in four straight games, which including a 36-point effort in a 140-132 win over Miami before having that double-digit streak snapped with nine points in 23 minutes in a win over Dallas last Wednesday.
The Knicks visit the Charlotte Hornets Wednesday night before returning home Friday night to host the Milwaukee Bucks at Madison Square Garden.
