Landry Shamet

Landry Shamet has spent his career proving that elite shooting travels. The 26th pick out of Wichita State in 2018, he's now suited up for six franchises, and the reason the calls keep coming is simple: defenses have to account for him the moment he crosses halfcourt. He made the All-Rookie Second Team in Philadelphia and once tied a Suns franchise record with nine threes in a game, but 2025-26 was the payoff — re-signed by New York, he became a trusted playoff shooter on the Knicks team that won the 2026 title, the franchise's first championship since 1973, beating San Antonio in the Finals. What lifts him above a pure specialist is the gravity: his off-ball movement bends defenses even on nights the shot isn't falling, prying open driving lanes for the stars.
