It’s the second ring of Landry Shamet’s summer. Fresh off of helping the Knicks win their first championship in 53 years, the sharpshooter has sparked engagement rumors as his partner Cameron Aimonetti was pictured in photos obtained by The Post with some new jewelry on her ring finger. The couple was pictured relaxing on the Amalfi Coast in Italy, with Aimonetti wearing a large rock on her left hand.
Ian Begley: Landry Shamet has a player option in the final year of his deal, per SNY league sources. Structure gives Shamet long term stability with team & coach that highly value him while maintaining flexibility in 2029 offseason
Keith Smith: Landry Shamet’s new contract with the New York Knicks is guaranteed for $14.5M (first two years are fully guaranteed, last two years are partially guaranteed), a league source tells @spotrac. Shamet also has a player option on the final season.
NY Knicks PR: .@nyknicks Re-Sign Landry Shamet
Shams Charania: Just in: Free agent guard Landry Shamet intends to sign a new four-year, $24 million deal to return to the New York Knicks, sources tell ESPN. Shamet's agent, George S. Langberg of GSL Sports Group, worked with Knicks executives on Monday to land the long-term commitment.

Ian Begley: Landry Shamet turned down the opportunity for bigger offers from other contenders to re-sign with the Knicks and defend the title, per sources. Those offers were coming if Shamet hit free agency. Instead, he and Knicks agree on 4-year, $24 million deal to bring him back to New York, as ESPN first reported. Bringing back Shamet was a priority for the club. If Knicks stay under second apron, it will be very difficult for them to now retain Mitchell Robinson.
Bobby Marks: The contract will allow New York to remain below the second apron after the roster is filled out. The Knicks have 11 players under contract.
The Heat is expected to try to add at least two skilled three-point shooters in free agency. Other options, listed here, include Landry Shamet, Anfernee Simons and Quentin Grimes, among others.
Ian Begley: By trading out of first pick in second round of draft, Knicks have positioned themselves to find players more likely to accept rookie minimum deal via second round pick exception. Every dollar counts as NYK operates as team that will not exceed 2nd apron in team salary. This approach makes it nearly impossible to find a realistic scenario where they can retain both Mitchell Robinson and Landry Shamet in free agency. ESPN reported that Knicks traded No. 31 and No. 55 to Houston for No. 39, No. 53 and a 2029 Kings second rounder.

Landry Shamet was trying to play it cool. The Knicks depth piece was casually seen on the subway in New York on Wednesday, going incognito with a hat and sunglasses in what seemed to be an attempt to disguise himself. However, some fans did recognize Shamet, 29, as he tried to be like every other New Yorker.
Oh No He Didn't: Landry Shamet: "It's emotional just considering everything: Training camp deal 2 years in a row on the verge being out of the league and injuries, ups and downs man. It's crazy. I'm just really, really grateful and proud of myself for not giving up"
Victor Wembanyama didn’t come flying out of the paint to close out on a shooter at the top of the key, leaving him able to track Shamet when the ball came to him in the corner. That’s by design. “At this point,” Fox said, “when you’ve played a team so many times, you know what they’re going to do. They know what you’re going to do. They got us in rotations and … teams want to get Vic out of the paint. You know that’s not a secret. We have gotten good about rotating around him, and he’s gotten better at closing out to shooters, getting guys off the line while trying to stay in front of them.
SNY Knicks: "The officials are going to do their thing. There's questionable calls every night, that's not something new. We can't sit here and make excuses" Landry Shamet responds to the officiating tonight:
