The Brooklyn Nets traded guard Landry Shamet to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for Jevon Carter and the 29th overall pick in Thursday's draft, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
The 24-year-old Shamet averaged 9.3 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game with the Nets last season. He hit just under 39% of his 5.5 three-point heaves per contest. The Wichita State product previously played for Suns head coach Monty Williams when Williams was an assistant on the Philadelphia 76ers in 2018-19.
Carter, the No. 32 pick in 2018, has averaged 14.3 minutes per game over three seasons. The 6-foot-1 point guard has career averages of 4.5 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game with 38% shooting on threes.
