Philadelphia 76ers: Shake Milton will be buried on the bench

With the recent addition of Trey Burke to the Philadelphia 76ers roster, it’s become abundantly clear that playing time will come very rarely for 2018 second round pick Shake Milton. Despite the Sixers committing to Milton for the long-term by signing him to a four-year deal, his outlook this season in terms of court action doesn’t appear to be promising.

Now that the Sixers have both Trey Burke and Raul Neto slated to battle for backup point guard minutes behind Ben Simmons, there seems to be little to no chance that Milton will see time in the point guard rotation.
