The New York Knicks need every bit of their depth they can get as the push to the postseason begins. Disaster struck when they lost guard Landry Shamet to a knee injury that kept him out of their most recent victory against the Washington Wizards. However, Stefan Bondy of the New York Post was able to share good news on Shandry's injury outlook.

While Bondy shared that Shamet will be unavailable for the Knicks' upcoming game against the New Orleans Pelicans, he also posted on social media that the team doesn't expect him to be out long.

"Good news on Shamet. Heard the injury is nothing major and he won’t be out long.
Mike Brown said Shamet banged his knee in the Nets game," Bondy wrote in one post.

"Would expect Shamet to be back within a few games, if that. Been a major part of the Knicks rotation since returning from shoulder injury," he continued in another.

While the Knicks have one of the weaker schedules in the NBA for their final 10 games of the regular season, it will be all hands on deck once the playoffs begin. Despite some struggles to stay consistent, New York is tabbed as a favorite to win the East and could dethrone the Oklahoma City Thunder as reigning NBA Champions.
