SMU guard Shake Milton among draft prospects at Jazz’s workout on Memorial Day

Shake Milton shot the basketball extremely well in his audition for the Utah Jazz in Monday’s pre-draft workout. But the Jazz knew he could shoot, so a reputation that preceded him needed to be fleshed out with other attributes.

If the Jazz and Milton — a scoring point guard out of SMU — are to be a match when Utah picks in the first round of June’s draft, Milton will have to prove adept at other phases of his game. Things like playmaking and finding teammates, things like defending on the perimeter, and even playing different positions if needed.
