When Shake Milton first injured his hand on February 5th, it was quite the disappointment. Milton had been showing positive signs, and even if he wasn’t able to impress the Sixers coaching staff enough to warrant playing time down the stretch, it was exciting to watch a young Sixers wing developing before our eyes. Around the time of the injury, Kyle Neubeck of Philly Voice quoted Brett Brown as saying that Milton would be “out for a while”. However, Milton made a somewhat surprisingly quick return to action, joining the Delaware Blue Coats on March 8th.
Since his return, Milton has played four games for the Blue Coats, and let’s just say the injury has not seemed to affect his play whatsoever.
