One thing has become abundantly clear through three Summer League games: Shake Milton isn’t a point guard. He has manned the lead guard spot in Vegas, but his limited athleticism and lack of — **dramatic pause** — shake has been detrimental.
The Philadelphia 76ers signed Milton to a four-year, rookie scale contract, which signals confidence in both his development and his fit moving forward. Milton still has a path to being an effective member of the rotation, it’s just in a different capacity than Vegas. He can’t be the go-to option behind Ben Simmons.
