Shake Milton

Position: PG, SG

Height: 6-foot-6

College: SMU

College Stats: 18 PPG, 4.7 RPG, 4.4 APG

You got a big fan in me, Shake. A 6-foot-6 combo guard with a 7-foot wingspan (Yes you read that right), who is a career 42 percent shooter from the 3 and can attack the rim ferociously. He’s strong for his length and has a great handle too.

He could transform into a true PG at the next level with added improvement in his passing abilities. I love his consistent scoring abilities, athleticism, finishing and speed. I could see him being a tweener because teams might not utilize him at the 1 spot and primarily use him as a three and D guy, which I could see him succeeding at as well. He did miss the last 11 games of this year and played at an inconsistent, smaller school but his abilities have me wondering why he isn’t rated higher.

I could see Shake being the steal of the draft this year and I’m stoked to see what he can do at the next level.
