Shake Milton has been absolutely balling since he started filling in for Ben Simmons, as noted in my previous article. Most impressive is his three-point success; he is currently shooting 52 percent from deep over the Philadelphia 76ers‘ last five games, four of which were on the road, and tallying 19.4 points per game.
For a player who rarely saw court time during the first half of the season due to depth at the wing position, Shake has now established himself as a key cog in this team’s offensive game plan.
