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.
The moment came just a day before the Knicks celebrated their NBA title during a championship parade Thursday up through the Canyon of Heroes in lower Manhattan.
Shamet could be seen on a Knicks float with a camera hanging from his neck, taking pictures of the crazy Lower Manhattan scene while holding a beer.
He also got a picture with Mayor Zohran Mamdani as the Knicks received the keys to the city at City Hall at the end of the parade.
Shamet was a big part of the Knicks’ dominant playoff run after struggling through a shooting slump.
He entered the playoffs further down on the list of coach Mike Brown’s rotation, but went on to prove he could deliver in the moment that mattered with some clutch shots leading up to the NBA Finals.
Shamet knocked down all four 3-pointers in the Knicks’ 130-93 Eastern Conference finals Game 4 rout of the Cavaliers that clinched their place in the Finals.
It capped off an incredible run of 17-for-21 from 3-point range across a six-game stretch.
