Struggles in return Shamet (hip) provided nine points (2-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six assists and four rebounds across 26 minutes during Monday's 136-106 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Shamet returned to the starting lineup from a three-game absence due to a hip injury, and while he performed well enough as a distributor, his poor shooting marred his overall line. The Suns could soon get Cameron Johnson (knee), Chris Paul (hip) and Cameron Payne (foot) back from multi-game absences, but Shamet may still be in good position to maintain a starting role while shooting guard Devin Booker (groin) faces a longer-term absence. Until Paul is back in the fold, Shamet should see an uptick in his assists production, though Shamet will profile as more of a streaming option for three-pointers once the 12-time All-Star is ready to take back starting duties at point guard.

Starting Monday Shamet (hip) will join the first unit for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

Impact Shamet will return to the starting five following a three-game absence due to a hip issue. In six starts, Shamet has averaged 11.7 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.8 steals across 32.0 minutes.

Available against Grizzlies Shamet (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Shamet was questionable ahead of Monday's matchup, but he took part in 4-on-4 work during practice Sunday and will return from a three-game absence against Memphis. Over his four appearances prior to his absence, he averaged 10.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 31.8 minutes per game.

Iffy for Monday Shamet (hip) is questionable for Monday's matchup against the Grizzlies, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Shamet was spotted taking part in 4-on-4 work during Sunday's practice and will have a chance to play Monday. The fifth-year wing has missed three straight games due to a hip issue, but he'd scored in double figures in three straight appearances before suffering the injury. If Shamet is available, he figures to be a candidate for a sizable role, as Cameron Johnson (knee), Chris Paul (hip), Cameron Payne (foot) and Devin Booker (groin) all remain out.

Spotted practicing Sunday Shamet (hip) was seen taking part in 4-on-4 work during Sunday's practice, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact The Suns have yet to issue an updated injury report for Monday's game in Memphis, but Shamet looks as though he could have a shot to play after missing each of Phoenix's last three contests with right hip soreness. If available, Shamet could step into a high-usage starting role in the backcourt with Devin Booker (groin) sidelined and with Chris Paul (hip) at risk of missing another contest.

Edwards, Timberwolves bounce back to beat short-handed Suns

Still sidelined against Minnesota Shamet (hip) won't play in Friday's game versus the Timberwolves, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact Shamet will miss his third straight game Friday due to right hip soreness. With the majority of Phoenix's regular backcourt options out, Duane Washington and Damion Lee should continue to see extended minutes. Shamet will have an extra day to recover for Monday's matchup with Memphis.

JANUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Wednesday Shamet (hip) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Nuggets, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Although Shamet was able to participate in the Suns' shootaround Tuesday, he'll be sidelined for both ends of the back-to-back set. He's one of several players in the backcourt who will remain out Wednesday, so Damion Lee, Duane Washington and Josh Okogie should continue to see increased playing time.

Won't play Tuesday Shamet (hip) is unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Warriors, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Shamet took part in the Suns' shootaround Tuesday morning but won't suit up at Golden State. With Devin Booker (groin), Chris Paul (hip) and Cameron Payne (foot) also unavailable, Duane Washington and Damion Lee are poised to have heavily increased roles in Phoenix's backcourt.

JANUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Present for shootaround Shamet (hip), who is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game at Golden State, took part in the Suns' morning shootaround, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Shamet was added to the Suns' injury report Monday with a sore right hip, an injury he most likely picked up during Sunday's 112-98 loss to the Cavaliers. His presence at shootaround suggests he'll likely be ready to play Tuesday, but Shamet may not be formally cleared until the Suns release their starting lineup shortly before the 10 p.m. ET tipoff. If available, Shamet would likely serve as the Suns' starting point guard while both Chris Paul (hip) and Cameron Payne (foot) are sidelined.

Added to injury report Shamet is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Warriors due to right hip soreness, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Shamet missed time at the end of December while dealing with an Achilles injury, and it appears he's now nursing a different issue. Duane Washington and Damion Lee would likely receive additional playing time if Shamet is unable to go Tuesday evening.

JANUARY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Modest numbers in return Shamet (Achilles) finished with six points (2-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes in Monday's 102-83 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Back in action after a three-game absence due to right Achilles soreness, Shamet stepped into the starting five and should remain in the top unit for the foreseeable future with Devin Booker (groin) likely sidelined until at least the latter part of January. Though Shamet wasn't able to capitalize on Booker's absence Monday, he likely won't have too many 2-for-9 outings from the field to drag down his stat line like it did against the Knicks. In his four games prior to injuring his Achilles, Shamet averaged 22.5 points and 5.5 triples per contest on 43.5 percent shooting from the field and 44 percent shooting from distance. At the very least, Shamet should make for a strong streaming option for three-pointers while Booker is out.

JANUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Monday Shamet (Achilles) will rejoin the starting unit for Monday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Shamet's return Monday comes after three consecutive absences due to soreness in his right Achilles. With Devin Booker (groin) sidelined for a month, Shamet should be expected to remain in the starting lineup. In two starts this season, Shamet has averaged 14.0 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 31.5 minutes per game.

JANUARY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Active as expected Shamet (Achilles) will return to the hardwood for Monday's meeting with the Knicks, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Shamet has missed three consecutive games with soreness in his right Achilles but will be available for Monday's tilt. With Devin Booker (groin) slated to miss most of January, Shamet could be in line for an extended stint in the starting lineup and may be a worthwhile addition for as long as Booker is sidelined.

JANUARY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play Monday Shamet (Achilles) is considered probable for Monday's game versus the Knicks, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Shamet has missed the last three games while nursing an Achilles injury but appears set to rejoin the action Monday. He should be in line for healthy minutes and a potential starting role in the coming weeks with Devin Booker (groin) sidelined for four weeks.

Out again Friday Shamet (Achilles) won't play Friday versus the Raptors.

Impact Shamet will miss his third consecutive game while dealing with right Achilles soreness, leaving the Suns' backcourt down considerable depth with Devin Booker (groin) out at least four weeks and Cameron Payne (foot) also out again. Duane Washington, Damion Lee and Josh Okogie are among the candidates to see additional run Friday as a result.

Not playing Tuesday Shamet has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies due to right Achilles soreness, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Shamet scored 31 points while adding six assists, two rebounds and one block across 39 minutes in Sunday's overtime loss to the Nuggets, and his absence means the Suns will be extremely thin when it comes to backcourt depth, as both Shamet and Devin Booker (groin) have been ruled out. This will likely translate to Damion Lee moving into the starting unit, and Shamet's next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Wizards.

True Basketball Crime: Aaron Gordon hit-and-run dunk over Landry Shamet shattered the Suns Where did Landry Shamet’s soul go after Aaron Gordon sent him to the astral plane?

DECEMBER 26, 2022 • DEADSPIN.COM

Logs heavy workload Sunday Shamet had 31 points (10-20 FG, 7-17 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one block over 39 minutes during Sunday's 128-125 overtime loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Shamet started the game on the bench, but he endured the workload of a starter following the early exit of Devin Booker, who left the game in the first quarter after re-aggravating his groin injury. Shamet had an excellent performance Sunday, and while he's not likely to hover around the 30-point mark on a regular basis, he should remain in the starting unit as long as Booker remains out, and that should translate into an uptick on his fantasy value as well.
